My two cents, although I'm usually hopeless at this kind of thing .......
2013 Predictions
i) STI: +10%, hitting 3,500 before end-year.
ii) Residential Property Market: Flat, with a drop off in the very-high-end stuff.
iii) Industrial Property Market: low single digit % increase.
iv) Inflation +3.5%.
v) GDP Growth +4%.
vi) S$ trades below 1.20 to the US$ before end 2013.
vii) One of (but not both) Kingsmen Creatives or Lee Kim Tah is subject to a G.O.
viii) Muddy Waters "attacks" another Singapore listed entity, i.e. another after Olam - this time its victim is one that is NOT backed by Temasek.
