Looks rather bearish from TA point of view!
It has broken down the support at $1.12 and also broken down the $1.10 psychological level.
Looks rather weak and we may see further selling down pressure.

The current price of $1.07 is trading below its SMA lines such as 20,50 , 100 & 200. Likely to see the price continue to head further South!


Short term wise, I think the price may slide down to retest $1.00 level.Breaking down of this level with high volume that may smell troubles and could see it prices continue to fall further towards 92 cents with extension to 79 cents.

Not a call to buy or sell.

NAV of 61 cents.
P/b of 1.76.
Trailing EPS of 5.2 cents.
PE of 20.5x.
Dividend of 3.5 cents.
Yield of 3.2%

I think decent yield of 3+%. But not as good as compare to SingTel that is yielding 5.6% at $3.13.

Ascendas Reit

@jeremyowtaip bro Jeremy, would like to hear your view? Isn't the new placement of 170m share is going to erode the dpu? Current price is trading at p/b 1.24x , Nav 2.07, seems trading at a super premium price level.(i think is expensive)..Yield is below 6%. DPu of 15.9 cents, let says another 5% decrease of dpu that may derive the dpu of 15.1 cents. Would you rather wait for price to go lower towards $2.20 level or lower Or would you be interested to initiate a position at current price level?

ASCENDAS REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST (“ASCENDAS REIT”) AT AN ISSUE PRICE
OF S$2.540 PER NEW UNIT
Capitalised terms used herein, unless otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed to them
in the announcement of Ascendas Real Estate Investment Trust dated 6 September 2018 in relation
to the launch of the proposed private placement (the “Announcement”).
1. Introduction
Further to the Announcement in relation to the private placement of 178,007,000 New Units
at an issue price of between S$2.528 and S$2.606 per New Unit (the “Private Placement”),
Ascendas Funds Management (S) Limited, in its capacity as manager of Ascendas Reit (the
“Manager”), is pleased to announce that DBS Bank Ltd. (“DBS”) and J.P. Morgan (S.E.A.)
Limited (“JPM”, and together with DBS, the “Joint Lead Managers and Underwriters”), in
consultation with the Manager, have closed the book of orders for the Private Placement.
The Private Placement was approximately 2.2 times covered and drew strong demand from
new and existing institutional, accredited and other investors.
2. Issue Price

The issue price has been fixed at S$2.540 per New Unit (the “Issue Price”), as agreed
between the Manager and the Joint Lead Managers and Underwriters, following an
accelerated book-building process.
The Issue Price of S$2.540 per New Unit represents a discount of:
(i) (for illustrative purposes only) 3.50% to the adjusted volume weighted average ..

price1
 (“VWAP”) of S$2.6322 per Unit; and
(ii) 6.09% to the VWAP of S$2.7047 per Unit for trades in the Units done on Singapore
Exchange Securities Trading Limited (the “SGX-ST”) for the full Market Day2
 on 6
September 2018 (being the Market Day on which the Placement Agreement was
signed).
The gross proceeds from the Private Placement amounted to approximately S$452.1
million.
The Issue Price of S$2.540 per New Unit represents a 25.1% premium to the adjusted net
asset value per Unit3
 (based on Ascendas Reit’s unaudited financial results for the financial
period from 1 April 2018 to 30 June 2018).
3. Use of Proceeds
Subject to relevant laws and regulations, the Manager intends to use the gross proceeds of
approximately S$452.1 million from the Private Placement in the following manner:
(i) approximately S$250.0 million4
 (which is equivalent to 55.3% of the gross proceeds
of the Private Placement) to partially fund the acquisition of a second UK logistics
portfolio5
 (the “Proposed UK Acquisition”) and the associated costs, subject to
completion of negotiations with the vendor and satisfactory due diligence6
;

(ii) approximately S$109.0 million (which is equivalent to 24.1% of the gross proceeds
of the Private Placement) to partially fund the development of a build-to-suit facility
located in Singapore (the “Proposed Singapore Development”), subject to
completion of negotiations with the vendor and satisfactory due diligence7
;
(iii) approximately S$88.9 million (which is equivalent to 19.7% of the gross proceeds
of the Private Placement) to be used for funding debt repayment and future
acquisitions; and
approximately S$4.2 million (which is equivalent to 0.9% of the gross proceeds of
the Private Placement) to pay the estimated fees and expenses, including
professional fees and expenses, incurred or to be incurred by Ascendas Reit in
connection with the Private Placement,
with the balance of the gross proceeds of the Private Placement, if any, to be used for
general corporate and/or working capital purposes.
Notwithstanding its current intention, in the event that the Private Placement is completed
but the Proposed UK Acquisition and/or the Proposed Singapore Development does not
proceed for whatever reason, the Manager may, subject to relevant laws and regulations,
use the net proceeds from the Private Placement at its absolute discretion for other
purposes, including, without limitation, to repay existing indebtedness and fund capital
expenditures.
Pending the deployment of the net proceeds from the Private Placement, the net proceeds
may, subject to relevant laws and regulations, be deposited with banks and/or financial
institutions or used to repay outstanding borrowings or for any other purpose on a shortterm
basis as the Manager may, in its absolute discretion, deem fit.
The Manager will make periodic announcements on the utilisation of the net proceeds of the
Private Placement via SGXNET as and when such funds are materially utilised and whether
such a use is in accordance with the stated use and in accordance with the percentage
allocated. Where there is any material deviation from the stated use of proceeds, the
Manager will announce the reasons for such deviation.


Listing of, Dealing in and Quotation of the New Units
The trading of the New Units on the SGX-ST pursuant to the Private Placement is currently
expected to commence at 9.00 a.m. on 18 September 2018.
The Manager will make a formal application to the SGX-ST for the listing of, dealing in, and
quotation of, the New Units on the Main Board of the SGX-ST. An appropriate
announcement will be made upon the receipt of such in-principle approval from the SGXST.
Placement of New Units to DBS’ Treasury Investments Unit (“DBS TI”)
DBS TI has been allocated 9,800,000 New Units under the Private Placement. Ascendas
Land (Singapore) Pte Ltd (the “Sponsor”) is a substantial unitholder of Ascendas Reit. As
of the date of this announcement and based on information available to the Manager,
Temasek Holdings (Private) Limited (“Temasek”) owns 51.0% of the Sponsor. Accordingly,
Temasek, through its interest in the Sponsor, is deemed a substantial unitholder of
Ascendas Reit. DBS is a wholly owned subsidiary of DBS Group Holdings Ltd (“DBSH”) and
based on the latest annual report of DBSH for the financial year ended 31 December 2017,
Temasek had a direct and deemed interest of 29.27% in DBSH as at 1 March 2018.

Downtrend stock counters

These are the few downtrend stock counters that could be seeing further selling down pressure!

Japfa
China Sunsine
DBS

Firstly, we take a look at Japfa.
After hitting the high of about 77 cents, it has succumbed to selling down pressure and continue to trend lower to close 62.5 cents today, this is rather bearish.

Short term wise, I think likely to revisit 60 cents . Breaking down of 60 cents with high volume that would be rather negative and may continue to slide down towards 50 cents level.


Similarly for China Sunsine, after hitting the high of $1.60+, it has since corrected sharply and continued to go down to touch $1.02 today and close at $1.04 . This is rather bearish!

Short term wise, i think it may likely revisit $1.00. Breaking down of $1.00 may likely see it prices heading lower towards 91 cents with extension to 82 cents.

Thirdly, for DBS it has broken down the recent low of $25.00 and continue to slide further down towards $24.41 today and close at $24.58 level. Looks rather negative and may likely continue to head lower to retest $24 with extension to $23.24 level.

Genting Sing

Looking at the chart we can notice that the Supply has more or less exhausted with the indication of the super wide Volume bar reflected in RED.

The volume bar has generally turned lower.

 The Demand started to come in with the indication of the stronger buying interest accompany with the super wide Volume bar in GREEN .

 This seems that the ACCUMULATION process is on going.

 Once BB has collected with sufficient amount of share, we can witness that the price had started to breakout of the Accumulation zone and rises higher.


 Genting Sing had a nice white thrust bar appeared on the chart today couple with high volume. This is rather positive. A nice Breaking out of the hurdle/accumulation zone at $1.10, this is super bullish!

Short term wise, it may likely re-attempt $1.14 the immediate Resistance. Breaking out with ease + high volume that may propel to drive the price higher towards $1.22,next $1.25.

Centurion

From TA point of view,it is rather bearish ! The company director keeps buying back share from 55 to 42 cents yet the price still continue to head further South! It seems that Bear is still in control!

Short term wise, it may continue to head lower. This reminds me of YZJ, the price keeps falling when the company keeps buying back share. The same scenario is being played out now on this counter.


Immediate support is at 40 cents. Breaking down of this level may see it's price slide further down towards 35 with extension to 30 cents.
