  UOB Call UOB SGAeCW081215
2008-10-13

Asian markets plunged on Friday as the Dow Jones Industrial Index and NASDAQ fell by more than 7% percent on Thursday. Heavy selling in the equity markets continued even after a string of rescue actions taken by the US Federal Reserve and central banks around the world.  As the market risk has increased tremendously especially in the financial sector, UOB share dropped $1.14 to close at $14.80 on Friday. The share is trading at a prospective PER of 10.4x FY2008 earnings.

 

The short term technical outlook for UOB is negative as the share has breached below its previous 52-week low at $15.38. If it can’t recover the loss in the short term, the share may test its nearest support at around $14.70.

 

If investors hold positive view on UOB, they may consider its call warrant

UOB SGAeCW081215 (F8JW). Maturity date 15 December, 2008; strike price $18.50 and effective gearing 8.2x; implied volatility approximately 60%.
