STI shows 'lethargic' recovery

Dampened mood awaits the index.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The pullback on Wall Street overnight and the poor Nikkei start (down 0.6%) are likely to dampen local sentiments this morning.

As a recap, the STI continued to register gains yesterday with a 0.3% gain but is looking a tad lethargic in its recovery.

And with today’s tone likely to turn more downside biased, we could see the index reversing back south in the direction of the 3000 psychological support.

Below that, the next base lies at the 2980 resistance-turned-support. On the upside, the immediate obstacle is still pegged at the 3020 support-turned-resistance, with the subsequent hurdle marked at the 3060 level (various peaks).

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.
