Ascendas Reit continues to surge higher at high volume. (Close $2.220, +0.130):
Ascendas Reit continues to surge higher at high volume in the last trading day of 2009. The stock closes at $2.220, and at +0.130 over the closing price of the previous day, it is a jump of almost 6.2%. Trading volume was in the top 20 list at 13,058,000 units, even higher than the 11,359,000 units on Dec 23. Not to forget that this was achieved on a half-day trading day.
Not only was Ascendas Reit able to maintain above $2 level for the past few days since Dec 23, it has managed to close at the highest stock price for the whole year at $2.22. We do not know how much of this was due to year end window dressing, but it is definitely a significant milestone for this stock.

Finally, this stock is back as a $2.00 stock again. We will have to see whether it will hold above this level in days to come.

Generally, a stock is rated Outperform if the analyst felt that there is 15% upside in the next 12 months. Rated Hold is between <+15% and <-15%.
Underperform is more than -15% over the next 12 months.
The percentage is a defacto guide, and varies from analyst to analyst or house. You can find a glossary at the end of the report.
Read the explanation and opinion given and ask yourself if you are convinced.
If yes, you can to go to phase 2.
Check if there are any analyst covering this stock. If no, you may want to build up slowly.
If there are many analyst. Goto phase 3
Count and group their rating under their respective opinion.
For example, there are 10 analyst covering :.
a) Stock A: Buy = 5, Sell = 5
b) Stock B: Buy = 9, Sell = 1
c) Stock C: Buy = 5 , Hold = 3, Sell = 2
Now the Question : Which stock will you most likely to buy ?
Hint: Buying stock by way of analyst report is like appreciating a piece of abstract art. If the artist is really good, all who view (good viewer) will get the same meaning or thing or whatever....
Special Case to Phase 2. You will want to comb the internet to check if there is any foreign research house covering a particular stock of interest. There houses are not affilated to any financial entity like example : Wright Publishing......They make money by selling report only.
Stock like Allgreen, NOL, DBS, UOB, OCBC, China Sport..........are covered.
Finally, analyst report are just opinion lor....and you will see, for example, NOL continously buck the trend of analysts opinion.
If you like to make easy money, you need to study hard lor....It is your money, It is your call.
BTW, the blog link is broken or what, timeout leh.......

Actually, each analyst (house) have different criteria for "stock recommendations" but generally "Out-perform" will mean that the stock in question is likely to return (in terms of both upside potential and income) a certain percentage (usually 5%) better than the benchmark, either the STI or FTSE over the next 6mths or 1 year. "Under-perform" will have the opposite meaning.

Strange, over the years I have never bothered to find out what analysts meant when they labelled a stock "out-performed" or "under-performed".
I thought I might as well learn it now. Anyone care to share?
When a stock is labelled as "out-performed", do you buy? I would imagine the analyst is saying the stock's price had performed better than others and by this logic, one should sell since potential of further gain is limited.
