Short Note -- "New" Indices 0 comments

Will be adding another few indices for daily monitoring, as this has proven quite useful for some, if feedback is accurate :-) This time, I'm not creating any new indices from scratch, because the themes I'm looking at are already reflected in existing indices on the SGX --- the All-S Equities indices. The Financial, Property, Hotels and Construction sector indices there are still quite relevant and well-updated, so there's no point for me to re-invent the wheel. These sectors also happen to be rather interesting proxies to the umbrella theme --- domestic reflation. I will include these with my self-created China theme, Energy sector and Environmental/Water sector indices in my daily summaries.

More details on the component stocks for these All-Singapore indices can be found in the SGX website:
Financial Sector Index
Property Sector Index
Hotels/Restaurants Sector Index
Construction Sector index

Obviously these sector indices will not start from 100, since they started way back.

I will also be just listing the various index changes daily; no charts until the weekend given the high number.

Also take the opportunity to introduce readers to my friend Lucy's site on www.dxxl.blogspot.com where she has kindly documented a history of my various self-created sector indices for easy reference by readers. Please give her your encouragement!
