Pent-up demand pushes CCR prices up

This following slow CCR sales during the Chinese New Year period.

OCBC Investment Research noted:

CCR price appreciation picks up. Interestingly, we see a pickup in price appreciation in the CCR to 1.6% in 2Q11 from 1.1% last quarter. Over the last three quarters, we had saw the bulk of the CCR price appreciation come from completed unit sales, and we think the current environment of liquidity and healthy rental carry likely continued to attract buyers to completed CCR units. Moreover, this could be due to pent-up demand after traditionally slow CCR sales during the Chinese New Year period in the first quarter.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
