Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 1.8%

It could have 'exhausted' its uptrend.

According to OCBC, the pullback on Wall Street overnight is likely to cue the local bourse to a negative start this morning.

After another 1.8% gain yesterday that added up to a more than 120 points surge over the past week, the STI could have exhausted its upside move in the near term.

Here's more from OCBC:

And with today’s tone likely to turn more downside biased and the index already nearing its key 3270 peak resistance, we could see selling pressure heading back into the market.

This could send the index pulling back towards the 3220 resistance-turned-support, while the next base lies at the 3180 support. Meanwhile, the subsequent obstacle is pegged at the 3330 support-turned-resistance.

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.
