Singapore Hot Stocks-DBS, MobileOne in focus

SINGAPORE, Nov 20 (Reuters) - Singapore's largest lender,
DBS Group (DBSM.SI), will be in the spotlight on Friday after
RBS upgraded its recommendation on the stock to buy from hold
and raised its target price to S$18 ($12.97) from S$14
previously.

Nomura also raised its target price on MobileOne (MONE.SI),
Singapore's smallest mobile phone operator, to S$2.10, citing
the company's recent move to tap into the broadband internet
market and a deal to distribute the popular iPhone from Apple
(AAPL.O).

U.S. stocks slid on Thursday as another batch of economic
data pointed to the fragility of the recovery and a brokerage's
dim view on the semiconductor sector hit technology shares.
