Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.4%

Index likely to stage a modest technical rebound today.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The STI ended 0.4% lower yesterday, after concerns over the weakening SGD and increasingly muted China prospects overshadowed the positive close on Wall Street on Friday.

But on a more positive note, the index managed to close above immediate 3149 support (centre of Bollinger band); and this could provide a near-term base for the STI to stage a modest technical rebound.

However, unless it can convincingly trigger a parabolic buy signal around 3204, we could still see selling into the strength, especially if the index fails to even clear the 3200 hurdle.

And if that happens, the STI could head back towards 3100 (psychological support) and even 3072 (lower Bollinger band).

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.
