88 Singapore 10X Growth Stocks for Bullish New Year (招财牛年)

A daydream of an investor may be to become 10X richer in this New Year, similar to bullish 10X Stocks such as IFAST and Tesla over the past 1 year.  This dream could be realized one day but patience is required with strategies aligned with own personality.

In this article, you will learn from Dr Tee on 88 Growth Stocks in Singapore, some may be considered for longer term investing and / or short term trading with COVID-19 recovery stock rally. Bonus for readers who could read every words of the entire article, learning unique strategy to position in 6 giant growth stocks and also generalized strategy, applicable for all growth stocks including speculative growing Bitcoin.

1) Growth Small Cap Stock: IFAST Corporation (SGX: AIY)

2) Growth Technology Stock: AEM Holdings (SGX: AWX)

3) Growth Healthcare Stock: Top Glove Corporation (SGX: BVA / Bursa: 7113)

4) Growth Commodity Stock: Wilmar International (SGX: F34)

5) Growth REIT: Keppel DC REIT (SGX: AJBU)

6) Growth Bank Stock: DBS Bank (SGX: D05)

Economy for Year 2020 of pandemic is the worst of past few decades, therefore naturally New Year 2021 would have very high probability of stronger economy which could support the stock market.  This is especially true for growth stocks with growing businesses, especially for sectors benefiting from COVID-19.  Most investors may consider US growth stocks but there are actually growth stocks in each country including Singapore but requires more careful selection.

From the table sorted below for 88 growth stocks in Singapore, each has growing businesses over the past few years with ROE (Return on Equity) over 5%.  However, a growing business in the past may not be sustainable during COVID-19 period, could end up as a crisis stock. Fundamental Analysis alone is not sufficient, a growing business may not be a giant stock as share price could be undervalue (eg. IFAST over 1 year ago). Therefore, deeper analysis is required with LOFTP (Level, Optimism, Fundamental, Technical, Personal Analysis) Strategies.

Here, let’s focus on 6 Singapore Giant Growth Stocks in 6 different sectors, learning the unique positioning for each stock:

1) Growth Small Cap Stock: IFAST Corporation (SGX: AIY)

A giant stock may not need to be big in size, true for IFAST, a small cap stock. Over the last few years, IFAST price has been around $1/share (see earlier article shared by Dr Tee, IFAST was still at lower price then) while businesses continue to grow each year over the past decade, faster speed during pandemic with support of financial technology initiatives.

Over the last 1 year, IFAST share price has surged from 70+ cents to nearly $7, creating a miracle of 10X stock price, comparable with popular international growth stock such as Tesla.  IFAST has been a hidden gem, a small cap stock, therefore not getting attention of big funds. With more positive corporate news (eg. overseas expansion), driven by market greed (under theme of fintech), supported by more bigger size investors, it is relatively easier to move a small cap stock.

IFAST stock has created record high price every few months, Optimism level is over 90%, therefore some investors are afraid the “bubble” may burst, even it is a fundamentally strong company.  This concern is valid, therefore a safer strategy (applicable for all growth stocks) is to apply trend-following strategy for momentum or swing trading, entering only after recovery from each phase of price correction, ensuring the uptrend prices (higher high, higher low) to support the bull run. Exit depends on own personality, whether longer term investing (business analysis) or shorter term trading (ending of uptrend).

2) Growth Technology Stock: AEM Holdings (SGX: AWX)

Since the dotcom bubble burst in Year 2000, it takes 2 decades for semiconductor sector to rise again. AEM is similar to many semiconductor stocks, cyclical in nature, business could vary from very poor (losses in earlier years) to excellent (over 30% growth in last few years).  Therefore, it is crucial not to position in technology growth stocks for long term, aligning with sector cycle (eg. trade with booming in 5G applications).

Over the last 5 years, AEM share price has surged from 4 cents to over $4, creating a miracle of 100X stock price.  A stock 10X in share price may have potential to become 100X (common in US stock market, especially over a few decades of growth investing) but not many investors have faith to hold (especially during global financial crisis), therefore only gaining a small 10% profit after selling fast. AEM was a small cap stock, similar to IFAST, therefore relatively easier to move in prices, especially when driven by market greed.

AEM stock has created record high price every year with uptrend semiconductor cycle, Optimism level is over 90%, bubble may not burst in short term as semiconductor sector is still bullish, leading by TSMC with record high demand.  Due to high optimism with uptrend prices, AEM may be considered with trend-following trading but a trader has to be prepared for high volatility, strict compliance with S.E.T. (Stop Loss / Entry / Target Prices) trading plan.

3) Growth Healthcare Stock: Top Glove Corporation (SGX: BVA / Bursa: 7113)

Over the past 2 decades, Top Glove (Bursa) has multiplied by 500 times in share prices (aligning with 5 times rise during last 1 year of pandemic). Unlike AEM which business may not be sustainable when cyclic semiconductor bubble is burst one day, Top Glove and other glove giant stocks, eg. Riverstone (SGX: AP4), Hartalega (Bursa: 5168), SuperMax (Bursa: 7106) and Kossan (Bursa: 7153), have sustainable businesses for decades due to rising demand in both healthcare and manufacturing sectors, partly supported by lower material cost (rubber).

With recovery of pandemic, there is a significant sector rotation, stocks benefiting from COVID-19 are under significant price correction, despite the earnings are at historical high with strongest businesses ever.  Fundamental or business sometimes are being used as excuses to buy up certain growth stocks at high prices. When the market greed is diverted to other sector, the share prices are naturally lower. 

Glove stocks including Top Glove are experiencing bearish price trend over the past few months due to sector rotation (changes in target for market greed), prices are corrected significantly but still over 75% Optimism level, may not be suitable for entry due to lack of market speculation (required to sustain higher prices). When these giant glove stocks are falling below intrinsic values or ideally at lower optimism in future stock crisis, it would be good time for long term investing. Currently a better action would be “Wait”.

4) Growth Commodity Stock: Wilmar International (SGX: F34)

Commodity sector (Energy, Agriculture, Precious Metals, etc) has been under low optimism over the past 5 years, recovering gradually over the past 1 year, together with improvement in pandemic condition. So, it is timely to consider commodity stock, aligning to its sector investment clock.

Since Wilmar is listed with RTO in 2006, share price has gone up 10X over the past 2 decades, reflecting the importance of its agriculture products (palm oil, sugar, etc) to modern world with less land for plantations. Wilmar is supported by parent stock PPB (Bursa: 4065) with Kuok Family as sponsor, driven by subsidiary stock, YKA, with bullish 2X prices after recent IPO in China (Shenzhen: 300999).

Commodity has a longer term market cycle but the growth is more moderate (therefore more stable) compared to technology sector (eg. semiconductor / software stocks). Wilmar is near 50% Optimism level of fair value, therefore still reasonable to consider for long term investing or short term trading (supported by uptrend prices, entry after recovery of each price correction).

5) Growth REIT: Keppel DC REIT (SGX: AJBU)

In the internet era with more 5G applications, data usage will be enormous with explosive growth for next decade. So, Keppel DC Reit is positioned nicely to host data storage, collecting consistent growing rental as passive incomes. Keppel DC Reit has 100% business in data center while Mapletree Industrial Trust (SGX: ME8U) has about 1/3 businesses in this growing sector.

Over the past 5 years, Keppel DC Reit has experienced 3X in share prices from $1 to $3 but the gains is not limited share price appreciation. Its dividend is doubled every few years, therefore suitable to position as mid-fielder stock to have a balance of both growth (price appreciation) and dividend (passive income).

After reaching 100% Optimism level during peak of pandemic, Keppel DC Reit has experienced slower growth with sector rotation. The prices (sideways) are not strong enough for shorter term trading and price correction is insufficient for longer term investing (about 75% Optimism).  Therefore, similar to glove stocks, an investor may need to “Wait” for next crisis to Buy Low, or wait for next rally to Buy High (only after uptrend is established for short term).

6) Growth Bank Stock: DBS Bank (SGX: D05)

Bank sector is a key pillar of a nation, not to mention DBS Bank, a leader blue chip stock for decades. The worst time of bank stocks during pandemic is over, record high NPL (Non-Performing Loan) and low interest rate but most global banks including DBS are still profitable.

Unlike other strong growth stocks, DBS is a slower but more steady growth stock. Share prices has gone up 5X in cyclical way over the past decade, it is just a matter of time for the stock to become 10X. Many people want to get rich quick, therefore prefer to buy bullish stock with over 2X potential in less than 1 year but unknowingly exposing to high risk (potential price correction exceeding risk tolerance level), especially for speculative stocks with weaker businesses, driven by market greed.

DBS is at 60% Optimism level, higher than fair value, more suitable for medium term trading but Singapore stock market is lack of speculation due to smaller market size. DBS may also be considered as defender with average 5% dividend yield but it is also cyclical in nature due to interest rate and economic cycles, more suitable to invest after each major stock crisis. DBS is a potential 10X stock but not within 1 year as IFAST, more suitable for longer term market cycle investors. Similar strategy may be applied to OCBC Bank (SGX: O39) and UOB Bank (SGX: U11).

===================================

It is not a daydream to own a 10X stock one day.  The key difference is 10X within 1 year (eg. IFAST) or over decades (eg. Wilmar and DBS).  In short term, stock market behaves like a voting machine, therefore trend-following strategy is crucial to ride the uptrend wave but traders need to overcome greed (to sell high) and fear (to buy low) by following the trading plan strictly. In long term, stock behaves like a weighing machine, therefore fundamental analysis (growing business) with lower optimism undervalue prices would have high probability of winning rate, especially an investor has patience to wait or hold for years, making big money slowly.

This growth investing or trend-following trading strategies may be applied for Bitcoin or other growth / momentum stocks. Unlike growth stocks, Bitcoin (half commodity / half forex) has no business fundamental, therefore some investors may view Bitcoin as speculation. However, value could be derived from prices, as long as there are believers (actual trades of buy and sell), value could be created with Bitcoin remains limited in number (demand more than supply). Similar to gold or land with limited supply, Bitcoin becomes rare, harder to explore new supply in future, main variable will be demand which can be market greed driven.

With more acceptance of Bitcoin as “currency” in real world and support of big funds, Bitcoin has partial quality of growth investing. However, due to the unpredictable nature of technology (eg. safe storage of Bitcoin), it is more suitable as small capital investment. Even Bitcoin has 10X potential after reaching historical high of US$50,000 (over 60% Optimism level), it is volatile and speculative in nature, less than 5% of capital may be considered. Bitcoin has become speculative tools of big players, may not be suitable for retail traders with little capital. Similarly, trend-following strategy (entry after recovery from correction) may be applied for speculative trading. Of course, an investor has a choice to ignore Bitcoin, especially there are so many global and local growth stocks with real businesses.
