Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.1%

Expect strong gains today.

According to OCBC, the strong rebound on Wall Street Friday could provide a lift to the battered local sentiment; the Nikkei has surged 4.3% in early trade.

Here's more from OCBC:

But with the US markets shut tonight, as well as the restart of the Chinese markets after the CNY break, overall tone could still remain somewhat cautious.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
