Daily Markets Briefing: STI up 1.75%

Brace for a pullback today.

According to OCBC, although Wall Street ended with modest gains Friday, US index futures are coming off in after-hours trading, suggesting that further near-term upside may be limited.

Likewise for the STI, the recent strong rebound looks ripe for a pullback, especially if the index fails to convincingly sustain above the key 3000 level (it ended just below that level despite hitting an intraday high of 3011.63 last Friday), OCBC said.

Here’s more from OCBC:

Still, given that the daily technical indicators continue to look positive, any near-term pullback is likely to be shallow and found find pretty decent support around 2900.

Above 3000, the next hurdle is at 3050.

Meanwhile, REITs will kick off the earnings season this week, followed by the Keppel group of companies next week.

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.
