Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.1%

Today's tone likely to turn bearish.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The more than 1% plunge by the US indices overnight could spook the local bourse to a poor start this morning.

After another muted session yesterday (ended 0.1% lower), the STI continues to hover just above the 3200 psychological support.

But with today's tone likely to turn bearish, we could see the index gapping below this immediate base at the open, before sliding further towards the 3155 subsequent support (minor trough).

On the upside, the immediate obstacle is still pegged at the 3230 minor peaks, followed by the next hurdle at the 3260 key 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.
