Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.14%

Expect more gains today.

According to OCBC, the rally on Wall Street overnight should provide a boost to local sentiment this morning; the Nikkei is up 0.9% in early trade.

Here's more from OCBC:

With the STI managing to sustain itself above the initial 2650 successfully for the second session, the index could be poised to rise further to test the key 2700 hurdle in the coming sessions.

However, a failure to convincingly breach this level could bring about selling into strength again and send the index back towards 2600.

Do note that the index also appears to be rounding a top around here, hence the bears may still be having an upper hand at the moment.

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.
