Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.65%

Brace for a pullback today.

According to OCBC, the pullback on Wall Street overnight could also lead to a similar move in the local bourse this morning; the Nikkei is flat in early trade.

Here’s more from OCBC:

Although the STI ended 0.7% higher yesterday, the price action has formed a potential toppish candlestick; and despite the heavier-than-usual volume/value, we further note that gains were mainly driven by several blue chips like Jardine Matheson, Jardine C&C and STE.

Hence, we could see the index making a test of the initial 2650 support once again; a break could send the STI easing back towards the key 2600 level.
On the upside, we peg the key resistance at 2700; although we may see a modest hurdle at 2684 (50-DMA).

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.
