Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.2%

Today’s tone likely to remain more upside biased.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The optimistic display by the US indices last Friday night and the still-positive US index futures (up 0.2% now) could provide some inspiration to the local bourse this morning.

As a recap, the STI managed a 0.2% gain in the last session, although investors were still hesitant about pushing it beyond the 3200 psychological obstacle.

But with today’s tone likely to remain more upside biased, we could potentially see the index initiating another attempt to overcome this hurdle today.

Should the 3200 level be taken out, the index will likely head to the 3260 level (key peaks) next. On the downside, 3155 minor trough is still the immediate base, with the next support lying at the 3125 key trough.

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.
