Earnings Season: Do SGX and Keppel Still Have Room to Run?

As the Straits Times Index (STI) recently hit a new intraday high, market attention is now locked on two major Singapore blue chips reporting earnings on 5 Feb 2026: SGX Group and Keppel Ltd. After the 5 Feb earnings release, which stock is more likely to hit a “post-earnings high”?

Earnings Season Watch: SGX & Keppel – More Upside Ahead? With earnings season heating up, SGX and Keppel are back in focus. SGX continues to benefit from strong derivatives trading volume and growing investor participation in Asian markets. Meanwhile, Keppel’s transformation into an asset-light model and focus on infrastructure, energy transition, and connectivity solutions looks promising for long-term growth. Key things I’m watching: • SGX trading volume and derivatives growth trends • Keppel’s asset monetisation progress and recurring income expansion • Guidance and outlook amid global rate and economic uncertainty Both companies have shown strong strategic shifts, but sustainability of earnings momentum will be crucial. Are these still long-term compounders or nearing fair value? W

SGX & Keppel: 2 Different Worlds. Do They Still Have Room to Run?

🌟🌟🌟SGX and Keppel don't operate in the same universe.   $SGX(S68.SI)$  is the quiet heartbeat of our markets. $Keppel(BN4.SI)$  is reinventing itself for the AI infrastructure age.  But this earnings season, both reminded me why they are pillars of Singapore Inc.  As a Singaporean, I can't help feeling proud of how far our homegrown giants have come. SGX:  Record Results, A Pullback and Quiet Potential SGX delivered record revenue, stronger derivatives volumes and steady profit growth.  It is the kind of earnings that reflect resilience, discipline and a business model built on real recurring demand.

Earnings Review: Keppel Hit a 12-Year High While SGX Slipped, How to Trade?

This week, two earnings were out with mixed results. $Keppel(BN4.SI)$ surged 6%, reaching a 12-year high, while $SGX(S68.SI)$ despite posting its strongest half-year results ever — saw its share price dip 0.6%. Both delivered solid performance, so why did the market react so differently? Keppel: surprising numbers, dividends and super CEO announcement 1. Strong fundamentals Net profit in the second half rose 27.2%, bringing full-year earnings to S$1.1 billion. Its infrastructure and connectivity segments performed exceptionally well, aligning perfectly with the current AI data-center boom. 2.

This week really highlights how market reactions can differ even when earnings are strong. $Keppel(BN4.SI)$ jumped 6%, driven by impressive H2 profit growth, solid full-year results, attractive dividends, and the high-profile appointment of Piyush Gupta as chairman-designate. All of this has investors speculating about Keppel’s potential to grow into a major asset-management player. On the other hand, $SGX(S68.SI)$ delivered record revenue and solid adjusted profit, yet the stock dipped slightly. This seems to reflect elevated expectations, moderate headline profit growth, and ongoing rotation of capital fro

Attractive dividends Total dividend for the year reached S$0.47, including a special payout. In today’s environment, a ~4.3% yield combined with growth potential looks compelling.

With earnings season in full swing, Singapore Exchange (SGX) and Keppel Corporation are two stocks that have garnered significant attention from investors. Both companies have reported strong results, driven by improving market conditions and strategic initiatives. SGX: The exchange operator has benefited from increased trading activity, particularly in the derivatives segment. Its efforts to expand its product offerings and enhance its trading platform have yielded positive results. SGX's dividend yield remains attractive, making it a favorite among income-seeking investors. Keppel: The conglomerate has seen a significant turnaround in its offshore and marine business, driven by improving oil prices and a rebound in demand for rig-building services.

I’m going with C — both go up 📈. The STI just printed a fresh intraday high, and when index momentum is strong, large-cap names reporting earnings tend to benefit from passive and rotational flows, regardless of individual narratives. For $SGX(S68.SI)$ , expectations are undeniably high, but volume expansion ahead of earnings suggests positioning rather than distribution. As long as derivatives activity and data services show steady growth, the market may be willing to defend the premium valuation, at least in the near term. For $Keppel(BN4.SI)$ , the AI infrastructure angle is gaining credibility. While Bifros

🌟🌟🌟My answer is B) Keppel $Keppel(BN4.SI)$ - Keppel has officially traded its hard hat for a silicon cape & the market is absolutely loving in!  By pivoting from traditional assets into a high octane AI infrastructure powerhouse, Keppel is rewriting its entire DNA.  With the Bifrost subsea cable narrative acting as a massive digital tailwind, Keppel is primed for a major re rating. Keppel isn't just a Buy.  It is a front row seat to the future of Singapore's digital economy & the bulls are already charging!😍😍😍🐂🐂🐂🌈🌈🌈💰💰💰 @Tiger_SG @Tiger_comments @TigerStars </

In short term, rise to new highs is inevitable. In mid-to-long term, correction will occur and should the foreign wealth migration eases, there’s likelihood of broader revaluation and hence a decline to realistic values.

I pick C) Both go up. STI momentum still looked poised to lift most if not all the blue chip in the short term.
D both pull back due to the recent macro economic news with high volatility & valuation concerns for SGX & Keppel high technology stocks
