Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.5%

Recovery on Wall Street likely to boost index today.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The recovery on Wall Street overnight is likely to provide some inspiration to the local bourse this morning.

And with the STI showing signs of conquering the 3,330 key obstacle yesterday with another 0.5% gain, we could continue to see a more positive display by the index today.

For now, we have shifted the immediate key obstacle to the 3,400 psychological level, with the subsequent hurdle marked at the 3,485 key peak.

On the downside, 3,330 is now the immediate resistance-turned-support, followed by the next base at the 3,265 recent trough.

Meanwhile, IG Markets Singapore said:

 In Asia, Hong Kong and Singapore closed up higher +0.9% to 22401 and +0.4% to 3337 respectively but Shanghai bucked the trend closing in the red at -0.86% to 2199. We are calling the open for both HSI and STI higher than their overnight close.

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.
