CapitaLand share price to hit $5 in 2021?
On 3 November 2020, I wrote that CapitaLand share price could have bottomed when the blue chip sunk to a low of $2.50.

As of September 2020, 43% of the Group’s assets were in Singapore while 37% of the assets were in China. In the post pandemic era, the figures are likely to change drastically due to the series of transformative strategies implemented by the management.

Part of the reason for the bullish CapitaLand share price in the latter part of 2020 could be the revelation of the 3Q business update which saw robust China residential sales. Year-to-date September 2020, the sales value amounted to nearly RMB11 billion, an increase of 28% year-on-year.
