EWS ETF: Not The Most Exciting Option Around
ASEAN Economic Outlook In 2024
The total nominal GDP of the ten ASEAN nations measured in US dollar terms amounted to USD 3.6 trillion in 2022, more than doubling compared with total GDP of USD 1.6 trillion in 2009. Singapore's GDP growth rate improved to a pace of 2.8% y/y in the fourth quarter of 2023 according to the advance estimate of GDP from the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI).
EWS: Fundamental Headwinds To Outweigh The Attractive 5% Yield
From an income perspective, you'd be hard-pressed to look beyond the well-covered 5% yield offered by iShares' MSCI Singapore ETF. Yet, capital growth, including dividends, continues to be lackluster amid macro and industry-wide headwinds. Barring a much deeper valuation discount, owning a fund as bank-heavy as EWS into a monetary easing cycle doesn't seem all that appealing.
Singapore's Economic Growth Improves In Q3 2023
Singapore's economic growth in 2023 has slowed compared to 2022, with contracting manufacturing output and exports being a key factor. The service sector is expected to be more resilient, driven by the recovery of international tourism travel in the APAC region.
EWS: Beware The Singaporean Income Trap
Helped by its bank concentration, the iShares MSCI Singapore ETF is on track to become the highest-yielding ETF in Southeast Asia. Owning a bank-heavy fund into a peaking monetary tightening phase and an eventual easing cycle next year doesn't seem particularly appealing. With the fund also priced at a premium to its forward growth outlook, I would be hesitant about chasing the yield here.

EWS: Singaporean Equities May Be Poised For A Reversal
Singapore has been a beacon of resilience in Southeast Asia. But this year's macro shift isn't as favorable to Singaporean equities. The iShares MSCI Singapore ETF could be poised for underperformance as a result.
EWS: FY 2022 Review
BlackRock's iShares MSCI Singapore ETF is up 9% since our last analysis. Singapore is still a good proxy for growth in Asia and most companies offer solid balance sheets and trustworthy management.
EWS: Lion City Roaring Into 2023
The iShares MSCI Singapore Capped ETF has underperformed global benchmarks over recent years, due largely to the bursting of bubbles in two tech stocks that had heavy weightings in the index. These stocks now appear to be bottoming out, allowing the EWS ETF to outperform in recent months.
