[Vitus213]

Hi forumner. Sorry for asking another newbie question. I searched online and tried to understand some graphs like the P/E ratio and market cap to GDP ratio to determine undervalued stocks. So where can i find those graph for individual stocks in the sgx market to study them ?

You can umm, go to the SGX website?

http://www.sgx.com/wps/portal/sgxweb/home/company_disclosure/stockfacts

If you are looking for more advanced ones, then I think you have to pay, eg: Bloomberg.

I wouldn't say HWZ is the best place to ask for such advice Just google and search would spring up a lot of good results.

I think you can get a good idea from trailing PE, current PE and forward PE

!!WARNING WARNING!!!
The data from SGX stockfacts are wrong and outdated. I do not recommend using them at all.

u should grab the reports and calculate them yourself rather than relying on unreliable data sources like SGX stock facts

The data source is from Capital IQ.
Ask yourself, such a big organization make such simple mistakes ? Granted that they make some mistake on their monthly statement to customers. Now, if SOMEONE scrape data from website and publish without their consent, then how would they know it's their data ? Ha..ha..ha... you see now ?

hong fok what reason sia??

1. CapitaLand is 18.7 time the size of Hong Fok in term of mkt. cap. and yet the average members(directors/key executives) in Hong Fok are getting themselves paid 32% higher remuneration than CapitaLand
   
   
2. Stingy Mgt refuse to offer dividend in the past only recently declare a div in the size of peanut i.e less than 1% div yield.

Hong fok gives out too little dividends. Before someone says why be so hardup over dividends, I use dividends as a gague to whether management will reward minor shareholders a not.
