Dairy Farm USD - Chart wise, bearish mode! When can we see sunny days for supermarkets businesses!

 By right  supermarkets is selling essential items for the retails and businesses should be quite profitable! May be businesses were affected because of the pandemic situation. 

Other supermarkets player lije Sheng Siong and NTUC Fair Price I think they are quite profitable!

I think Dairy Farm is seeing improvement in their profitability as reflected on their 1st quarter update. 

Chart wise, bearish mode!

It has managed to bounce-off from the low of 2.11 ND closed higher at 2.28 looks rather interesting. 

It would be good to wait for reversal to kicks in before taking action for the next move!

With a long heritage of 160 years as Singapore’s sole provider of piped town gas, City Gas has transformed into City Energy to provide innovative green energy solutions that meet the needs of a growing city. City Energy produces and distributes piped town gas safely and reliably to approximately 886,000 residents, commercial and industrial customers islandwide, while offering low-carbon, IoT-enabled home solutions and electric vehicle charging services through City Energy Life and City Energy Go. To reduce carbon emissions, City Energy is also exploring green hydrogen as part of town gas production.

City Energy’s facility in Singapore, Senoko Gasworks, has a production capacity of 1.6 million m3 per day. As the only facility producing town gas in Singapore, Senoko Gasworks generates town gas using three continuous reforming plants and five cyclic reforming plants, each with a production capacity of 200,000 m3 per day. The plants are equipped to use both natural gas and light virgin naphtha as feedstock. The town gas produced can either be stored in two spherical gasholders or sent out through the distribution network to customers. Every day, gas production is monitored, controlled and directed 24 hours a day from a central control room. At the heart of the central control room is a fully automated distribution control system. The computerised distribution control system enables the experienced plant controllers to operate, monitor and oversee the gas production and ancillary plant.

Senoko Waste-to-Energy Plant (Senoko WTE Plant) is the third waste incineration plant built in Singapore and is one of four incineration plants currently operating. It was commissioned in 1992 with a land area of 7.5 ha.

Senoko WTE Plant is equipped with six incinerator-boiler units with two condensing turbine-generators offering a power generation capacity of 2 x 28 MW. Waste incineration is carried out at the plant 24 hours a day throughout the year.

Senoko WTE Plant underwent a flue gas treatment system upgrade in June 2012, which was completed within the contracted timeframe and budget, and with an accident-free safety record.

On 26 September 2014, the trust entered into an agreement with NEA to progressively increase the contracted incineration capacity of the plant by up to 10% from 2,100 tonnes per day to 2,310 tonnes per day between July 2015 and September 2016. The capacity payments from NEA were correspondingly increased with the completion of each incineration unit upgrade, with the sixth and final unit upgrade being completed with effect from 1 September 2016.

Following the decommissioning

of Ulu Pandan Incineration Plant by the Singapore government in August 2009, Senoko WTE Plant became the only waste incineration plant located in the northern part of Singapore. The plant is also the only waste incineration facility located outside of the Tuas area (which is in the western part of Singapore) and this positions it to serve the eastern, northern and central areas of the country.

DPU) of 2.492 cents for the 3QFY2023 ended Sept 30, a 3.6% decrease from the same period a year ago. 

‌

9MFY2023 of 7.543 cents is lowered than last year DPU of 7.634 cents. 

‌

For the three-month period, distributable income dropped by 6.5% y-o-y to $43.9 million. The REIT says that this is mainly due to higher finance costs and less favorable forex hedges, which were partially offset by higher finance income and tax savings. Its 9MFY2023 distributable income stands at $135 million, 2.1% lower y-o-y.

Yield is about 5% at 1.99.

I think a good pivot point might be at 1.81 about 5.5% yield! 

Chart wise, bearish mode! 

Immediate support is at 1.98.

Next support is at 1.90-1.91.

If 1.90 cannot hold,  we may likely see her going down to revisit 1.80 than 1.75.
