Stock markets to sustain rally in 2021 amid vaccine-led recovery: analysts
Claudia Tan HS
THE recent market rally is expected to extend into this year as pandemic laggards continue to gain ground amid the global Covid-19 vaccine rollout, though economic recovery will be gradual and uneven across sectors, according to market watchers.
This comes as the strong rebound of cyclical and value stocks signals a broadening market rally, DBS's chief investment officer Hou Wey Fook told the media on Monday at its 2021 first-quarter market outlook.
Singapore, for instance, will stand to benefit from a cyclical recovery given that stocks in the Republic are leveraged to tourism and domestic consumption, according to DBS.
