🌟🌟🌟While the rest of the world chases the volatile highs of AI and crypto, a powerful story of resilience and wealth is being written right here in Singapore.  Recently the market watched in awe as DBS$DBS(D05.SI)$  and OCBC $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$  surged to new highs, proving that these are not just "local banks" - they are Global Wealth Powerhouses. Resilience in the Face of Falling Rates  The big question on every investor's mind :  What happens when interest rates fall?  The narrative for 2025 and 2026 has shifted.  Analysts now see our Big 3 Banks as remarkably resilient. The secret sauce?  We

$DBS(D05.SI)$ $UOB(U11.SI)$ $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$ Singapore's banking giants are flexing hard today, with DBS hitting a fresh intraday high of $55.33 and OCBC peaking at $19.45 on December 17, 2025, riding a wave of robust wealth-management fees that jumped 25% in Q3 and solid capital-return strategies keeping investors hooked. 😎 These moves aren't random – they're backed by resilient business models that shrug off falling interest rates, with wealth inflows offsetting NIM squeezes and dividend yields clocking 5%-6% into 2026 for that reliable cash flow drip. Buybacks are cranking too, propping up shares amid global jitters, turning these banks into quiet com

I only hold OCBC and DBS indirectly via ETF. so far it has been very rewarding with good capital appreciation and dividend collected along the way boosting returns. I see more upside with the focus on wealth management paying off and strict capital structure position the local banks for future success

DBS and OCBC are the best. Better than UOB the lagger. DBS is better than OCBC in returns for the last 3 to 4 years.  Want to buy more DBS, but it doesn't dip low enough.

🌟🌟🌟One word to describe my experience of holding $DBS(D05.SI)$ and $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$ is "GRATEFUL ". I am grateful that both DBS and OCBC are performing well and a deep feeling of being secure, knowing that my capital is parked in the backbone of Singapore's economy, protected by solid returns and nice juicy dividends. Grateful that I have invested in our strong Singapore banks that are dominating the wealth management space and delivering great value to shareholders. Go Long Go Strong Go DBS and OCBC 🥰🥰🥰🚀🚀🚀🌛🌛🌛💰💰💰🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬 @Tiger_SG @Tiger_comments

As others have stated, the constant valuation climb is a happy benefit, the dividend would be most rational investors' main goal. I am happy that it has been keeping up the percentage even while valuations climb

One word to describe my experience in holding these 2 bank stocks is "steady" especially $DBS Group Holdings(D05.SI)$

here to win some coins!!!

I think both banks will continue to rise even if there is a short fall now. I am still saving up my money to buy one of these banks... Till yet still not enough to buy any of these banks.

Quiet compounder. Holding both DBS and OCBC has been a steady and reassuring experience for me. Seeing them hit fresh intraday highs reinforces why I like Singapore banks as core positions — strong wealth-management income, disciplined capital returns, and clear dividend visibility make them feel dependable even as the rate cycle turns. Between the two, I appreciate DBS for its consistency and dividend clarity, while OCBC adds value with a slightly cheaper valuation and improving fee momentum. Even with some NIM pressure ahead, the overall package still feels resilient, especially when buybacks and dividends continue to support share prices.
