Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.1%

Expect some profit-taking today.

According to OCBC, while Wall Street ended mostly mixed overnight, the modestly higher index futures could provide the local bourse with a boost, potentially extending the STI’s 0.1% rebound yesterday.

Here’s more from OCBC:

With the index seen as holding pretty well above the key 2900 support, the current uptrend is likely to continue; although we can still see sporadic selling into strength, sparked by earnings disappointments over the next two weeks. 

In addition, we note that the daily RSI is hovering just below the overbought region, which increases the odds of profit-taking. 

Overall volume climbed 17% to 1.67b units traded, while total value rose 10% to S$1.06b; but average value/unit eased 7% to S$0.63.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
