Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.2%

Expect a rebound today.

The modest rebound on Wall Street overnight could also inspire a similar recovery in the local bourse today, especially after the STI’s 0.2% correction yesterday.

Having said that, we believe that the near-term outlook remains slightly muted; and we could still see profit-taking emerging should the index fail to convincingly clear the key 2900 hurdle.

If that happens, the STI could correct back towards 2850 and even 2800 before stronger bargain hunting interest emerges.

Overall volume rose another 24% to 1.98b units traded, but total value slipped 18% to S$1.06b; this as average value/unit tumbled 35% to S$0.53, led by renewed interest in the penny plays.

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.
