Resorts World Sentosa to get 700 new hotel rooms, 21k in retail space: report A subsidiary of Genting Singapore has been granted provisional approval to develop some 700 hotel rooms and over 21,000 square meters in retail space at Resorts World Sentosa. The expansion is believed to be part of the company’s S$4.5 billion ($3.3 billion) pledge to further develop the RWS resort.
According to the Straits Times, the Urban Redevelopment Authority was the government body responsible for granting the authorization to the Genting subsidiary.
Currently, there are some five hotels providing 1,600 rooms at Resorts World Sentosa.
The property is expecting strong growth coming out of the pandemic, with Sentosa Development Corporation estimating the island resort will hit pre-pandemic numbers in “one to two years”. Genting Singapore posted an 86 percent increase in profit in 2022, at $258.32 million, due to strong results by Resorts World Sentosa.
Persistently high interest rates are putting stress on corporate balance sheets and leaving increasing numbers of firms here and across the region at risk of bankruptcy, according to a new report and experts...
Some economists believe that the Federal Reserve (FR) is likely to raise the Fed Funds Rate (FFR) one more time this year, during the December Federal Open Market Committee meeting.
Equally, other economists have the view that there will be no more rate hikes this year, with either stable rates in 2024, or possibly a cut by 2H2024.
The prospect of a cut in 2H2024 sounds unlikely as market behaviour isn’t pointing to the extreme dovish outlook currently. Instead, the path is likely to be somewhere in the middle with possibly no more rate hikes, but with the likelihood of rate cuts a low probability..
So..., how is the decision of the FR affects the bond market and the flow of fund between the equity and bond market arrr? Eg. Even if the FR increases the interest rate at the next sitting, the bond market may not move its needle 😄 ... as this will signal the end of the interest rate hike cycle.
The next Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting will be held on 12-13 Dec 2023. This is one of the key dates that investors, economists, and policymakers mark on their calendars Many experts expect the Fed to hold rates steady at a target of 5.25%-5.50%.
election is next yr and politics will strongly influence his decision (the fed is not independent by any mean). signs r pointing to a slow down in the economy so more than likely he'll cut rates next yr. boom time ahead for the mkt!
And when the Fed starts cutting interest rates, you still need to ask ... - if we are going to have a recession, and - it also depends on how fast they ✂️ the interest rate.
