Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.27%

Brace for losses today.

According to OCBC, the lackluster showing on Wall Street overnight could continue to weigh on local sentiment, and potentially extending the STI’s 0.3% correction; the Nikkei got off to a poor start, down 0.7% in early trade.

As warned previously, we see more downside risk from here, especially if the index fails to retake the immediate 2850 resistance in the near term. 

Here’s more from OCBC:

Also of note – while overall trading volume recovered to above 2b units yesterday, average value has fallen back towards S$0.55/unit, versus S$0.64 the previous session.

For now, we peg the initial support at 2800. Above 2850, the key hurdle remains at 2900.

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.
