Macro Research: 2026 SGD Bond Market Outlook: Finding Stable Income in a Low-Yield World
• Amid moderating global growth and trade-related uncertainties, Singapore bonds continued to provide a degree of stability in 2025. Singapore government and SGD corporate bonds have delivered attractive total returns of 8.3% and 6.7%, respectively in 2025.
• We expect a supportive demand-supply environment in 2026, with new issuances likely well absorbed, helping to support SGD bond prices going forward. Investors can also look forward to more income opportunities as bond issuances are likely to stay robust.
• SGD corporate bonds continue to remain a durable source for higher income, particularly for hold-to-maturity strategies. Within financials, Tier 2 SGD bank bonds appear attractive. Among non-financials, we prefer bonds from issuers with stable or improving credit profiles and with spreads that are wider than peers.

3 Things You Need To Know
1. EU could retaliate against US President Donald Trump’s Greenland-related threats by imposing up to €93 billion (USD $107.7 billion) in tariffs or by limiting U.S. companies’ access to the EU market.
2. Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi announced a snap general election, pledging to suspend the 8% food tax for two years, a proposal that mirrors her rivals’ plans despite concerns over Japan’s already fragile public finances, pushing Japanese 30yr government bond yields above 3.6%.
3. Only one thing that hasn’t experienced a meaningful pullback since 2022 – Japanese government bond yields, is this an extra risk premium as Japan exits its loss decade…. or rather a calm before the storm?

Stock Idea: From concrete to innovation: How Pan-United is shaping a greener future
• Market-leading position with strong sustainability focus: Pan-United is Singapore’s largest ready-mix concrete (RMC) supplier, backed by decades of involvement in national mega-infrastructure projects. Its leadership in carbon-mineralised concrete solutions positions the company as the preferred partner for both public and private sector developments increasingly prioritising sustainability.
• Earnings visibility underpinned by mega projects and solutions expansion: Pan-United is poised to benefit from major upcoming projects, including Changi Airport Terminal 5 and key transport infrastructure upgrades, providing multi-year earnings visibility. Concurrently, the firm is transitioning from a pure RMC supplier to a broader solutions provider through its innovation portfolio, enhancing margins and deepening competitive moats.
• Attractive upside potential: Applying a fair forward P/E multiple of 14x, we derive a target price of SGD 1.37, based on our three-year forward earnings forecast. This implies an upside potential of 17.9%, supported by rising demand for green construction materials, strong fundamentals and visible growth catalysts.

Macro Research: Trump puts further pressure on the Fed – what should you do?
• On 11 January 2026 (Sunday), Federal Reserve (Fed) Chairman Jerome Powell disclosed that the Fed had been served with grand jury subpoenas by the Department of Justice (DOJ).
• In response, Powell delivered a strongly worded statement via a recorded video. The market reaction to this subpoena was relatively muted.
• We continue to belief in further yield curve steepening in 2026, and think a mix of short and medium-term bonds could help investors navigate this interest rate environment.

Macro Research: Trump’s Iran tariff threats: China can absorb the shock, but India can’t
• Trump announced that countries doing business with Iran may face a 25% tariff on US trade, placing major partners such as China and India under potential pressure.
• We reiterated our positive stance on China. Multiple catalysts provide a constructive backdrop for Chinese equities, supporting a positive market outlook despite external uncertainties.
• In contrast, India faces greater downside risks due to limited countermeasures, export vulnerability and expensive valuation.

Macro Research: US threatens tariff on Europe AGAIN - Hold tight as volatility may return
• US President Donald Trump’s Greenland tariff threat has deepened the divide between the US and key NATO allies.
• If fully implemented (15% + 25% tariffs), the measures would lift overall tariffs by around 2.8%, pushing the average US tariff rate on the EU to 16.8% — the highest since last spring.
• We encourage investors to remain calm and wait for greater clarity rather than engage in panic selling. Should further market weakness occur, it may present opportunities to add exposure to global technology stocks or selected European sectors, such as financials and healthcare.

This session highlights where valuations remain justified, where risks are rising, and which markets are best positioned to lead in the year ahead.

The Federal Reserve (Fed) is expected to hold interest rates steady this week at a meeting overshadowed by a Trump administration criminal investigation of US central bank chief Jerome Powell, an evolving effort to fire Fed governor Lisa Cook, and the coming nomination of a successor to take over for Powell in May.
2. Gold charged past US$5,000 an ounce for the first time on Monday as an array of geopolitical tensions pounded the dollar, while investors remained on tenterhooks about possible official buying of the yen after a series of surges in the Japanese currency.
