Singapore Bank Stocks – Underperformed vs STI | Accumulate on further weakness | Technical Analysis

With the recent anxiety over Greece & Italy’s increased risk of not meeting their debt obligations with observed increased yield rates of their long term government bonds, there is renewed weakness in most banking stocks throughout the region.

FTSE Financial vs STI Technical Chart

As seen in Singapore, Financial sector is seen to be underperforming against the overall STI as much as 4-8%. This is not readily seen since 52 weeks back.

As one of the largest bank by market capitalization, UOB stock has broken downwards of the consolidation band (17.80 – 21.00). Good accumulation prevails towards the next long term support at $14-15, although near term technical bearishness should curtail any significant price recovery.

UOB Technical Chart

Near term indicators point to some consolidation at oversold levels. Once there is significant good progress in Eurozone, the financial sector should get some short term relief.
