Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.86%

Expect muted gains today.

According to OCBC, continued weakness on Wall Street overnight is likely to weigh further on local sentiment; the Nikkei is down 0.6% already in early trade.

Here’s more from OCBC:

As before, the STI could be making its way back to test the 2850 support; although we suspect that stronger bargain hunting interest may only emerge closer to 2800.

And on the upside, 2900 remains a formidable hurdle in the near term; we think that traders are likely to be looking to sell into strength around there.

Above 2900, we peg the next strong resistance at 2931.

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.
