Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.1%

Today's tone likely to turn more downside biased.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The pull-back on Wall Street overnight and the poor Nikkei start (down 1.1% now) could cue the local bourse to a negative opening this morning.

Despite registering a 0.1% gain yesterday, the STI is still clearly locked in a flat trading range since early Jul.

And with today’s tone likely to turn more downside biased, we could see the index drifting lower towards the lower boundary of its trading range again at the 3200 psychological support.

The next base lies at the 3130 minor troughs. On the upside, we still see the 3280 recent peak as the immediate obstacle, with the subsequent hurdle pegged at the 3320 support-turned-resistance.

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.
