The vaccine announcement by Pfizer Inc (PFE US) and Moderna Inc (MRNA US), 

the laggard Singapore equities market all of a sudden leaped to joy and pushed travel-related names up, playing catch up with the rest of the world.


Singapore Airlines (SIA SP) and SATS Ltd (SATS SP) are the go-to stock for Singapore’s reopening air travel that started with the travel bubble with Hong Kong and other low-risk countries to follow. Comfortdelgro Corp (CD SP)  is the key beneficiary to the reopening of the Singapore economy, through the switching of work-from-home to work-in-office (higher ridership in the MRTs and buses that contributes to 60% of the company’s revenues), and also from the reopening of the restaurants and malls that increases mobility in the country. The low or non-existent community COVID-19 cases also help to boost the confidence in Comfort Delgro.
