Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 1.2%

Expect more losses today.

According to OCBC, renewed weakness on Wall Street overnight is likely to weigh further on local sentiment and send more investors heading for the exit; note that Nikkei is down 0.7% in early trade.

Here's more from OCBC:

The STI, down 1.2% yesterday, looks poised to test the immediate 2900 support, breaking which, could ease further towards 2860.

2800 remains a realistic target in the current environment.

On the upside, we peg the immediate hurdle at 2950; but we continue to see 3000 as a pretty tough hurdle to clear.

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.
