Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.37%

Brace for a pullback today.

According to OCBC, the pullback on Wall Street overnight could see the local bourse doing likewise, especially after the STI’s good run of gains over the past week or so.

Here’s more from OCBC:

Besides the usual profit-taking ahead of the weekend, we note that the daily RSI has entered into the overbought region; hence the market may be due for a pause and some consolidation before heading higher again.

As before, the medium-term picture remains relatively upbeat, as the 50-DMA has recently cut up on the 100-DMA; the 100-DMA support also appears to be holding up after a recent test.

For now, we peg the initial support at 2950, ahead of 2919 (38.2% retracement of plunge from 3549 to 2528); initial hurdle remains at 2980, while key remains at 3000.

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.
