Here are the five worst-performing blue chips so far this year

They're trading farthest from their one-year highs.

Data from the SGX showed that Noble Group, Genting Singapore PLC, Sembcorp Marine, Golden Agri-Resources, and Olam International are the worst-performing Straits Times Index (STI) constituents so far this year.

These five stocks are trading farthest from their 12-month highs, and some of these firms are also among the counters which have experienced the largest negative price change year-to-date.

As of Friday's close, Noble Group was down 43.9% from its one-year high. The group's share price has also declined 26.5% year-to-date.

Genting Singapore PLC was down 31.3% from its 52-week-high, while its current share price has slipped 12.6% year-to-date.

Meanwhile, Sembcorp Marine was 28% off its twelve-month high, with its share price down 5.9% year-to-date.

Agribusiness players Golden Agri-Resources (GAR) and Olam International were 26.3% and 26.2% off their one-year highs, respectively. GAR has suffered a 5.4% price reduction year-to-date, while Olam's share price has declined by a milder 1.7% year-to-date.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
