SGX hits liquidity milestone as 100 stocks book $1M daily trading in January

Smart money have abandoned blue-chip safety for tech-led surge.

More Singapore-listed stocks are seeing higher trading activity, with 100 counters averaging more than $1m in daily trading value in January, up from 92 a year earlier, data from Singapore Exchange (SGX) shows.

Stocks that crossed the $1m daily trading mark include PC Partner, EFH, Ley Choon, Aoxin Q&M, Bukit Sembawang, InnoTek, Pacific Radiance, GuocoLand, Raffles Education, Sunpower, and iX Biopharma, according to SGX market updates.

Overall trading in these stocks increased in January compared with 2025, pointing to stronger interest across a wider group of companies on the exchange.

Technology stocks featured prominently amongst the more actively traded names.

SGX data showed counters such as AEM, InnoTek, CSE Global, UMS, and iFAST attracting higher levels of institutional buying during the month.

Recent new listings on the SGX Mainboard and Catalist also added to market activity in early 2026, helping lift overall trading volumes.

The rise in the number of stocks trading above $1m a day suggests improved market depth beyond the usual blue-chip names, as investor participation broadens at the start of the year.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
