Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 1%

Another sharp pullback is likely today.

According to OCBC, the sharp drop on Wall Street overnight is going to depress local sentiment further, with the Nikkei down 1.9% in early trade. This should see the STI slipping below the key 3000 support.

Here's more from OCBC:

And once the 3000 support gives way, we could potentially see the index slipping further towards the 2800 region in the coming months.

Having said that, a return to that level would entice longer term investors to re-enter the market.

In the meantime, we peg the next intermediate support around 2960.

On the upside, we continue to peg the initial key hurdle at 3053 ahead of the next strong resistance at 3100.

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.
