SGX hits liquidity milestone as 100 stocks book $1M daily trading in January

Smart money have abandoned blue-chip safety for tech-led surge.

More Singapore-listed stocks are seeing higher trading activity, with 100 counters averaging more than $1m in daily trading value in January, up from 92 a year earlier, data from Singapore Exchange (SGX) shows.

Stocks that crossed the $1m daily trading mark include PC Partner, EFH, Ley Choon, Aoxin Q&M, Bukit Sembawang, InnoTek, Pacific Radiance, GuocoLand, Raffles Education, Sunpower, and iX Biopharma, according to SGX market updates.

Overall trading in these stocks increased in January compared with 2025, pointing to stronger interest across a wider group of companies on the exchange.

Technology stocks featured prominently amongst the more actively traded names.

SGX data showed counters such as AEM, InnoTek, CSE Global, UMS, and iFAST attracting higher levels of institutional buying during the month.

Recent new listings on the SGX Mainboard and Catalist also added to market activity in early 2026, helping lift overall trading volumes.

The rise in the number of stocks trading above $1m a day suggests improved market depth beyond the usual blue-chip names, as investor participation broadens at the start of the year.

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.
