Market News In 2 Minutes @ 23rd June 2014

Market News in 2 minutes
As stock investors (even though a small one), it is important to keep abreast with the latest financial and market news. Since I am in it, I thought it might be worthwhile to share it out with my readers too.

Hence, I started this "Market News In 2 Minutes" series.
 
Following are the "Market News In 2 Minutes" for today :
 
1. SIA (C6U) -  (1) An air operators' permit (AOP) is expected to be issued to the Tata-Singapore Airlines (SIA) joint venture in July and commercial operations are likely to start in September, according to India’s Financial Express newspaper. (source : The Edge) ; (2) Singapore Airlines’ Scoot entered a joint venture agreement with Nok Airlines Public Company Nok Mangkang Company and Pueannammitr Company (PNM) to set up a joint venture airline through the acquisition of the existing Pete Air Company (@ 2 billion baht or $80 million). The company believes that acquiring Pete Air will expedite the start-up in Thailand as compared to a green field venture. (source : Shares Investment)
