If you had told a Singapore investor a year ago that DBS would touch $66 or that AEM would blast past $10, they would have told you to stop daydreaming.
The Singapore Exchange is historically stereotyped as a slow and steady dividend graveyard, where many stocks, including well-known blue chips, trade sideways for years. Even the better performers tend to slowly creep up by just a few percentage points a year, delivering double-digit percentage returns for investors only after dividends are included.
Yet here we are in mid-2026, and the numbers speak for themselves. The disbelief is entirely valid, this kind of explosive growth is rare in the local market, but a look under the hood reveals that these massive valuation shifts are not just empty hype.
