Singapore stocks take a beating amidst fears of a US recession

NOL’s shares, for instance, plunged 5.3%.

A Reuters report said, “Singapore stocks that were largely exposed to the global economy and trade flows were among the hardest-hit.”

Most Southeast Asian stock markets dropped on Monday following the release of bleak US employment data. The United States failed to create any jobs in August for the first time in almost a year.

“Singapore was among Asian countries with a higher share of exports to Western countries, that could be hurt if the United States or European economies continued to slow,” noted the report.

Meanwhile Singapore shares may open lower on Tuesday amidst renewed concerns about Europe's debt woes.

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.
