Investors Guide to Using this Website
SG Stocks Brief organises publicly available SGX announcements and stock prices so you can time a purchase after you have decided on a stock, monitor something you already own, or spot announcements worth a closer look. It is an information-organisation tool, not investment advice.
The calendars
The AGM / EGM, Dividends, Reports and Other Announcements calendars list upcoming and recent events across all tracked companies, each linking straight back to the underlying SGX or company page.
Company pages
Each company page shows a price chart and a combined Price & Event History table. Pick a single date range — 2 weeks, 3 months, 1 year or 3 years — from the Show selector and both the chart and the table follow it. You can filter by event type and download the data as a CSV spreadsheet (daily open/high/low/close prices, traded volume and dated announcements) for use in Excel or your own analysis tool.
- The yellow highlighting indicates an upward trend: prices are rising.
- Rows with no prices are announcements taken from SGX. Some announcements cause prices to rise.
- SGX announcements are refreshed about three times each weekday; prices about nine times each weekday.
- The trading hours of the Singapore Stock Exchange are 9am to 12pm and 1pm to 5pm.
Top Movers and paper trading
The Top Movers screens surface the biggest short- and medium-term price movers across tracked SGX names, each with a short AI commentary note on what has been driving the move. When you want to practise, the paper-trading portfolio lets you place pretend Buy/Sell orders from any company page at the latest close and track virtual cash, holdings and profit/loss — no real money is involved.
A sensible approach
- Start by picking a good stock based on reported company results and the economic outlook.
- Use this website for timing a purchase after you have decided, monitoring a stock you own, spotting announcements for deeper investigation, or practise paper trading and monitoring a diversified portfolio without using real money in the trades.
- An alternative way to start is to pick stocks from the top movers based on doing a technical commentary on them, before checking their reported company results.
- If you can't stop worrying, just invest in an ETF (Exchange-Traded Fund) like the STI (Straits Times Index) instead, for better diversification to spread the risk.
- Under normal circumstances, after you have set aside enough for an emergency fund of several months to one year, you can start setting aside money for investing.
- After you have chosen your stock to invest in and a time to buy or sell the stock, pick a low cost e-broker and do your trade there.
Nothing here is a recommendation, scoring or rating. Always verify against the original SGX filings before making any investment decision.
