Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.6%

Expect more gains today.

According to OCBC, the positive Wall Street showing overnight and the impending QE measures in EU should continue to keep local sentiment buoyant.

Here's more from OCBC:

However, after the STI’s 0.6% gains yesterday (and 0.8% the previous day), further sharp gains may be unlikely.

While market volume finally broke the 2b unit mark, average value per unit traded remains low around S$0.54.

We also note that the daily stochastic indicator is still trending lower, although the MACD has started to turn up again.

As such, profit-taking could emerge should the index fail to convincingly clear the 3375 hurdle (recent peak). On the downside, we peg the immediate support at 3320 (30-DMA, 50-DMA), ahead of 3300 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.
