Chart of the day: Energy stocks are the most traded in first two months of 2022

An average of $1.41b in average daily turnover was recorded in the same period.

This chart from the Singapore Exchange shows that the energy stocks lead in terms of contributing to the market’s performance in January to February 2022 at a 21% average price performance.

The energy sector also leads in terms of average year-to-date price performance at 32%.

Whilst this industry leads in terms of price performance, it is only one of several sectors, such as Telecommunications, Real Estate (excl. REITs), Consumer Non-Cyclicals, Consumer Cyclicals, Utilities, Financial Services (excl. Banks), and Materials and Resources, that have recorded net institutional inflows.

A $1.41b in average daily turnover was recorded over the first two months, with the country’s 100 most traded stocks making up $1.34b. These 100 stocks also represent an estimated 75% of the total market capitalisation of all primary and secondary-listed stocks on the exchange.

Overall, the Straits Time Index’s total return for the period was pegged at 4%, higher than the 2.8% return for the FTSE ASEAN All-share Index.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
