Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.5%

Expect some gains today.

According to OCBC, the strong rebound on Wall Street could provide some reprieve to the local bourse this morning (Nikkei +1.3% higher already), especially with the STI looking oversold after its 17% tumble since 21 Jul.

Here's more from OCBC:

While we expect the index to easily take out the immediate 2900 resistance (tested but failed yesterday), the real test lies at the 3000 mark; continued failure to sustain above this level could see the index slipping back towards 2800 region.

In that case, it may just be another technical rebound and we could see more investors using it to unwind stale longs.

On the downside, we peg the immediate support at 2860, ahead of 2800; but if the latter gives way, it could lead to a return to around 2698 (early Jun 2012 low).

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.
