$Abbott Laboratories (ABT.US)$ Seems to be a massive surge in demand for tests, profit must be good on these - they cost around $4 in Guardian in Singapore (airport at least) and US$20+ in the US, so the margin is phenomenal. Might be a pre-Christmas blip but I’d expecy a bumper annual return / q4 result and a higher than usual bump in its price. Might be temporary since there’s a testing version of Moore’s law happening (testing getting less invasive, faster, smaller and cheaper) and demand will mean governments want more alternatives - still a good buy though for now I think

SINGAPORE: The United States on Monday (Oct 18) raised its COVID-19 travel advisory level for Singapore to the highest risk category, asking visitors to avoid travel to the country.
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) adjusted its advisory for Singapore by one rung to Level 4, which indicates a “very high level of COVID-19”.
"Because of the current situation in Singapore, even fully vaccinated travellers may be at risk for getting and spreading COVID-19 variants," said CDC.
The US' health protection agency said those who must travel to Singapore should be fully vaccinated, and that they should follow the country's recommendations or requirements, including wearing a mask and observing safe distancing measures.
The US Department of State issued a similar notice on Monday, urging people not to travel to Singapore due to COVID-19.
CDC uses travel health notices to alert travellers to health threats around the world, via a four-level advisory system.
The system categorises destinations by taking into account factors such as the number of recent COVID-19 cases and the trajectory of new cases.
Other destinations currently at Level 4 include Brunei, Malaysia, Thailand and the United Kingdom.
The CDC advisory comes as Singapore began welcoming more fully vaccinated travellers on Tuesday, afterextending its vaccinated travel lane scheme to eight more countries.
Fully vaccinated travellers from Canada, Denmark, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States will be able to enter Singapore without having to serve quarantine.
More than 2,400 people from these countries have beenissued travel passes to enter Singapore as of Oct 13, with about 40 per cent of the passes issued to travellers from the United Kingdom.
Singapore launched itsfirst two vaccinated travel lanes with Brunei and Germanylast month. Itstravel lane with South Koreawill open in Nov 15.
OTHER DESTINATIONS
South Korea is among countries with a “high level of COVID-19” currently at Level 3. Others in the same category include Australia, Indonesia, Japan, and Vietnam.
Thetravel advisory for Indiais at Level 2, indicating a “moderate level” of COVID-19. Unvaccinated individuals at risk of severe illness are advised to avoid non-essential travel to these places.
Among the Level 1 destinations identified by the CDC are China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and New Zealand.

$SIA (C6L.SG)$ dropped below 5.5 liao. All those who complained about not being able to get at 5.5, are you hopping in right now, or are you gonna “readjust” and “wait for 5.4”, “wait for 5”? Or be that dude who’s waiting for 3.9? Can’t wait for SIA to bump up to 6 and hearing people crying about not getting in early.

$SIA (C6L.SG)$ is a virtue...
.... that will he rewarded...

The solution?
Don't expect... don't check... buy already... just wait and come check back in December...
BUT if want to check everyday, might as well go MBS or RWS... have a good day everybody!
