Keppel Corp, Jardine C&C and CapitaLand Invest take over April STI.

The Straits Times Index (STI) consolidated in April with a total return rate of 2.1% in the January to April period, according to data from the Singapore Exchange (SGX).

“During April, institutions were net sellers of Singapore stocks, with S$261 million of net institutional outflows. This was the least amount of monthly net institutional outflows since net inflows were booked in November 2022.” the SGX said.

Its monthly percentage trading range had been narrow since February 2015. The four-month return was also the average between the total returns of the FTSE APAC index of 3.3% and FTSE ASEAN all-share index of 0.8%.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
