    It’s been an eventful week for many well-known blue-chip names.

    First off, CapitaLand Investment (SGX: 9CI) made its debut on the exchange, a spin-off from property giant CapitaLand Group.

    Shares of the real estate investment management business (REIM), which closed at S$2.95 on its first trading day, have since climbed 15% to close at S$3.40.

    The REIM business model could see renewed interest in a familiar name as the new entity gears itself up for growth in 2022 and beyond.

    We also took a look at Singapore Airlines Limited (SGX: C6L) which announced that it had used up the remaining S$600 million from its 2020 rights issue.

    The successful launch of vaccinated travel lanes, or VTL, should come as a breath of fresh air for the airline.

    Meanwhile, Singapore Exchange Limited (SGX: S68) may soon be welcoming its first special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, after firming up a listing framework for the blank-cheque companies.

    If the listing does occur, it will open up exciting new opportunities for investors to partake in the growth of Singapore’s home-grown businesses.

    Here is a list of our top articles this week.
