Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.5%

Expect some gains today.

According to OCBC, firmer Wall Street close and continued gains seen in the US index futures should provide some relief to the local bourse this morning; but Nikkei down 0.5% in early trade.

Here's more from OCBC:

And as before, we think that selling into strength may continue to be the favoured approach due to the heighted volatility in the global stock markets.

Yesterday, the STI tried to make a technical rebound but selling pressure soon sent the index back down again, though it managed to end off the intraday low.

As before, the two key near-term hurdles remain at 3291 and 3302, while the main cap sits around 3357.

On the downside, the first support can be found at 3266, ahead of 3200.

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.
