Investors sell off property stocks amidst uncertainty

This drove Singapore shares to a two-year low as property companies lost in Tuesday’s trading.

A Reuters report said, “Property companies such as Global Logistic Properties and Hongkong Land were amongst the biggest losers on the benchmark Straits Times Index (STI), hurt by concerns slowing economic growth would dampen demand and rents.”

The STI was down 1.83 percent, or 48.09 points, at 2,573.31 at 0500 GMT. “Around 782.9 million shares worth S$738.9 million were traded, compared with 784.5 million shares worth S$735.9 million by the same time on Monday,” added the report.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
