Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 0.4%

Index likely to open higher.

OCBC Investment Research said:

Despite the recovery on Wall Street overnight, the local bourse could probably trade lightly ahead of the Labour Day public holiday tomorrow.

Despite climbing another 0.4% yesterday, the index may be due for some form of retracement or consolidation around current levels.

For now, we still see the immediate obstacle at the 3,400 psychological resistance. Beyond that, the next obstacle lies at the 3485 key peak.

On the downside, 3,330 is the immediate resistance-turned-support, with the next base pegged at the 3,265 recent trough.

Meanwhile, IG Markets Singapore noted:

The STI closed +0.39% to 3361, from our morning prices we expect both indices to open higher.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
