103255055 : share price doesnt always fluctuate based on the news. if its that easy, everyone will be rich
暗之声 : simply because dbs increased its dividend and uob stayed the same as the last dividend. this means uob is either stingy or not doing well
Fungicide : Lower dividend yield compared to DBS
WinningTrader : Net profit increase but missed forecast and share price dropped.
Reminds me of the companies I had worked. Profit better than last year, company still making money but missed forecast or target, everyone bonus cut and increment cut.
Same same. Big fish eat small fish.
C?O, directors, shareholders continue their life with new cars and yatches.
