Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.43%

Find out who the biggest losers were.

According to KGI Fraser, Asian markets rallied as the Brexit referendum looms closer. This came a day after the murder of a British MP, who was a strong advocate of the ‘stay’ vote.

This event likely caused investors to reassess the possible effect it will have on voting intentions come 23 June. Japan’s Nikkei 225 gained 1.1% as the yen halted its rally, China’s CSI 300 rose 0.5% and Hong Kong’s HSI increased by 0.7%, KGI Fraser said.

Here’s more from KGI Fraser:

The STI in Singapore was lifted by 11.86 points or 0.4% too, and closed at 2,763.42, after taking a week of beating.

HongKong Land (+1.7%), AREIT (+2.6%) and Hutchinson Port Holdings Trust (+3.4%) were the key movers in the index.

Golden Agri (-1.4%), UOB (-0.2%) and DBS (-0.1%) were the key index shakers. Surprisingly, OCBC gained 0.1% despite seeing the other two banks moving in the opposite direction.

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.
