Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.5%

Market may attempt to test the 3200 support, says analyst.

OCBC Investment Research said:

Good showing on Wall Street overnight could continue to keep local sentiment buoyant, adding to the STI’s 0.5% gain yesterday.

However, the market may stage an attempt to test the key 3200 support before moving higher again, especially if it fails to clear the initial 3224 hurdle (upper Bollinger Band) in early trade.

But should 3200 hold, we could see a pretty decent run up to the subsequent resistance at 3248 (previous peaks and troughs) and potentially 3300.

Daily technical indicators continue to remain relatively positive – the MACD is still trending up steadily, while the RSI is also rising after a recent rebound off the 50% level.

Below 3200, we peg the next support at 3176 (middle of Bollinger band).

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.
