description: "$DBS(D05.SG)The past week has been exciting and fulfilling. I’ve always wanted to get more local bank stocks such as DBS and OCBC but found the entry price too high. Last week presented an opportunity to use some reserves to shore up. My takeaway is to set aside reserves to shore up blue chips, for opportunities like this. We may not be able to purchase at the “lowest” price, but DCA will help average out during the decline. Need to exercise caution that we do not run our reserves dry in the cause of catching the lowest price."

- **Captain Leo · 2026-11-09T11:24:32.000Z**: Keeping some dry powder back instead of chasing the exact bottom is the rule most DBS dip buyers learn late👍 Anyone else averaging into the local banks, how do you split your cash buffer across each drop?
- **elleeee · 2026-11-09T02:31:27.000Z**: Of the three, OCBC was the only one that came in above forecasts, at S$2.04 billion against a S$2.01 billion mean estimate. DBS missed on the trading line.
  - **Ruthie** (2026-11-09T11:24:49.000Z): Yes you are right. Despite that, OCBC stock price still fell due to other external factors. Time to watch if a rebound happens when market opens tomorrow
