Amid the wider wild swings of global markets, Jonathan Koh of UOB Kay Hian maintains his positive outlook for Singapore-listed data centre REITs. Besides keeping his “overweight” sector call, Koh has also kept his “buy” call and respective target prices for Keppel DC REIT, Mapletree Industrial Trust Me8u and Digital Core REIT.
UOB Kay Hian analyst Adrian Loh has raised his target price on Centurion Corporation Ou8 to $1.48 from $1.16. The stock is deemed a “safe harbour” amid US President Donald Trump’s “tragic tariffs”.
“Centurion remains a key stock for investors in turbulent times, in our view,” Loh writes in his April 14 report.

In a move that captured the attention of financial markets, Deutsche Bank (DB) on March 21 announced that it would not call its US$1.25 billion ($1.69 billion) Additional Tier 1 Capital Instrument (AT1), which carries a coupon rate of 4.789%, at its next call date on April 30. This decision sparked some discussion, especially since it goes against the common expectation that financial institutions will redeem AT1s at the first or next available opportunity and that DB also concurrently announced that it would call another US$1.5 billion AT1 at its first call date, also in April.
As businesses increasingly adopt automation and artificial intelligence, industrial automation firm ISDN Holdings I07 is setting its sights on further expansion.

The average person spends about 45 years in the workforce, accumulating wealth over time. Regardless of his profession, education level or even socioeconomic status, it is essential for him to attain financial literacy and the skills to manage money.
In the early years of the century, an Australian bank undertook a substantial expansion into Indonesia and China. It put up prominent advertisements at the Jakarta airport. Then, the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) hit, and the bank pulled out of Indonesia and China.
As the global economy improved, it tried to return to these markets. However, more than 15 years later, it is still unsuccessful in re-establishing its foothold in China or Indonesia.
The bank was called a “rice-bowl friend” — present for the good times, and a coward on the run when things got tough.
