Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.7%

Index likely to take a breather today.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The retreat on Wall Street overnight and the negative Nikkei start (down 0.2% now) are likely to cue the local bourse to a negative opening this morning.

After overcoming the 3250 key obstacle yesterday with a 0.7% gain, the STI could potentially take a breather this morning.

We do not rule out a retracement to retest the 3250 level. A successful rebound from there could propel the index to the subsequent resistance at the 3320 key support-turned-resistance in the weeks ahead.

Beyond the newly established 3250 resistance-turned-support, the next base is pegged at the 3200 level (recent trough).

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.
