I think $ocbc bank(O39.SI)$ will close at SGD 18 next Friday. While margin pressure from falling SORA and HIBOR rates is real, much of it seems priced in. Investors may remain focused on OCBC’s solid fundamentals — stable NPL ratio at 0.9%, strong capital base, and a 6.0% dividend yield, which continues to attract income-focused buyers.

Even with further NIM compression expected in Q2, I believe sentiment will stay moderately bullish. The recent high of SGD 17.45 shows strong momentum, and SGD 18 feels like a realistic level as long as earnings aren’t worse than expected. Conservative provisioning and stable asset quality offer some downside protection.

As for $DBS Group Holdings(D05.SI)$ , yes, I believe it can break SGD 50 next week. It’s already at SGD 49.21 and riding strong momentum. If OCBC’s results don’t trigger a sector-wide selloff, DBS could push through the psychological barrier and hit new highs.
