Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.1%

Will today's tone improve?

OCBC Investment Research said:

The pull-back on Wall Street overnight is likely to cue the local bourse to a poorer start this morning.

Despite other Asian markets having a strong run yesterday, the STI ended just 0.1% higher (just 3 points above the 3200 psychological level); this suggests that local sentiments remain rather uncertain at the moment.

And with today’s tone likely to be a tad more downside biased, we could see the index testing the 3200 level again.

Below that, the next base lies at the 3155 minor trough. On the upside, 3230 is still the immediate resistance (minor peaks), as the next hurdle is pegged at the 3260 key peaks.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
