Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.6%

Expect more losses today.

According to OCBC, the continued weakness of Wall Street overnight due to caution ahead of the US FOMC meeting (16-17 Sep) is likely to keep local investors on the sidelines as well; the STI ended 0.6% lower yesterday, pretty much ignoring the strong mandate for the PAP after last Friday’s poll.

Here's more from OCBC:

And as the local sentiment continues to remain quite muted, it would be tough for the STI to clear the key 2900 hurdle in the near term.

Instead, we could see the index making a slow grind down to 2800 region, breaking which, the next key support would be found only around 2600.

While we peg the next hurdle at 2950, 3000 remains the main hurdle to clear.

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.
