Stick with these quality companies for upside in 2018, says OCBC

SINGAPORE (Dec 14): OCBC Investment Research says upside remains even as 2018 is unlikely to see a repeat of the “stellar gains” this year.

Year-to-date, the benchmark Straits Times Index (STI) has climbed 20% on the back of the financial and property sectors.

The financial sector led the way as the best performing sub-index in the Singapore market, with year-to-date gains of 31%. This was followed by the Real Estate Holding and Development Index, which surged 27%. The Singapore REIT index also performed well, rising 19%.
