Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.5%

But a pullback is expected today.

According to OCBC, the correction by the US indices overnight and the poor Nikkei start (down 0.7% now) could spook the local bourse to a negative opening this morning.

Here's more from OCBC:

Following a 0.5% technical rebound yesterday, we are likely to see the STI reversing south again in the direction of the 3390 support region today.

Technically, the daily MACD has also been falling steadily over the past two weeks; this suggests that the recent upside momentum has waned significantly.

Below 3390, we still see the subsequent base at the 3300 psychological level. On the upside, 3460 remains the key immediate obstacle, followed by the next hurdle at the 3500 psychological level.

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.
