Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 1.20%

Wall Street’s weakness could mute gains today.

The Straits Times Index (STI) ended 1.20% lower at 3249.48.

The FTSE ST Mid Cap Index declined 0.38%, whilst the FTSE ST Small Cap Index advanced 0.67%.

OCBC Investment Research noted that US stocks closed lower, with the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average down for a fourth straight session as the ongoing turmoil in Turkey dampened investors’ appetite for riskier assets.

Nine out of eleven S&P 500 industries ended lower, led by Energy (-1.20%) and Materials (-1.04%) whilst Utilities (0.09%) and Health Care (0.01%) gained.

“Continued weakness on Wall Street overnight amidst the economic crisis in Turkey is likely to keep local sentiment cautious today,” OCBC Investment Research today.

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.
