Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.3%

Brace for a pullback today.

According to a report by OCBC, the STI’s rebound yesterday was short-lived once again, with early gains turning into a 0.3% loss by close. And with the sharp pullback on Wall Street overnight, the local bourse could be heading for its 13th losing session in 14 today.

Here’s more from OCBC:

We note that the selling picked up almost immediately after the index was unsuccessful in trying to re-take the key 100-DMA support-turned-resistance (then at 2763, but has eased 2761 now).

As before, the continued failure to do so does not bode well for the medium-term outlook; and we see risk of the STI sliding further towards the key 2700 support, breaking which, could bring the next one at 2782 into play.

We continue to peg the next key hurdle at 2800.

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.
