Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.7%

Today's tone likely to improve, says analyst.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The rebound on Wall Street overnight and the strong Nikkei start (up 3% now) are likely to cue the local bourse to a positive start this morning.

Despite pulling back another 0.7% yesterday, the STI still managed to close significantly higher than its intraday low; this important sign suggests that the index has probably found a strong support at the 3100 key resistance-turned-support.

With today’s tone likely to improve, we could see the index climbing towards the 3160 support-turned-resistance.

A break above this immediate obstacle will provide further strength for the index to head for the next resistance at 3240. Meanwhile, the subsequent base lies at the 3050 gap support.

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.
