Singapore Telecom shares stage a rally, but analysts see little reason to pile in
Article Abstract:
Singapore Telecommunications' share price has risen sharply in recent weeks as investors reacted positively to reports of the stock's inclusion in the Morgan Stanley Capital International Singapore index. However, some analysts contend that the company could not sustain the recent sharp price increases, despite a restructuring in its international operations, long considered Singapore Telecoms' weakest point.

Singapore stock exchange faces critics
Article Abstract:
The persistence of the Stock Exchange of Singapore in pursuing the listing of Chinese state-owned businesses has received criticisms from some of the nation's economic observers. A number of critics have wondered if the stock exchange's efforts to increase its offerings of Chinese companies will be rewarded by the country's investors given the poor performance of those state-controlled firms. They argue that investors have grown wary of investing in poorly-managed Chinese firms.
