Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.4%

Index likely to open higher.

OCBC Investment Research said:

Despite the recovery on Wall Street overnight, the local bourse could probably trade lightly ahead of the Labour Day public holiday tomorrow.

Despite climbing another 0.4% yesterday, the index may be due for some form of retracement or consolidation around current levels.

For now, we still see the immediate obstacle at the 3,400 psychological resistance. Beyond that, the next obstacle lies at the 3485 key peak.

On the downside, 3,330 is the immediate resistance-turned-support, with the next base pegged at the 3,265 recent trough.

Meanwhile, IG Markets Singapore noted:

The STI closed +0.39% to 3361, from our morning prices we expect both indices to open higher.

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.
