STI forecast to find the 3000 handle elusive

The expectation is amid weak cues from Wall Street overnight and morning losses by Nikkei and Kospi and resurgent Eurozone fears, says OCBC Treasury Research.

OCBC Treasury Research noted:

The STI, which added 0.53% to close at 2998.44 yesterday, may find the 3000 handle elusive, amid weak cues from Wall Street overnight and morning losses by Nikkei and Kospi and resurgent Eurozone fears. STI support is tipped at 2970.

However, IHH Healthcare debuts today, and institutional bids were supposedly more than 60x oversubscribed. The other IPO debutante is alumina-trader Sincap.

SGS bonds, on the other hand, are likely to remain supported amid the risk-off sentiments.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
