I still cannot understand why the share price dropped by almost $1 from high 29s to low 28s after the announcement of good results and the half yearly dividends growing from 0.65, 0.75 to current 0.85.. only thing is no bonus issue like DBS, but bonus issue is just an adjustment to make the stock price lower for the retail investors..

$OCBC Bank (O39.SG)$ Good bank giving out 9m help to 14,000 employees. They can only do that with stellar earnings and profit which is why they can do such a move. I'm guessing this could be a clue that a huge earnings beat is in store. Then again, do your own diligence. This is just speculation on my part.
