Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.3%

Hesitation was clearly evident.

According to OCBC, the modest gains on Wall Street overnight and the stronger Nikkei start (up 0.8% now) could provide a mildly positive cue to the local bourse this morning.

As a recap, the STI tracked back slightly yesterday with a 0.3% loss and displayed hesitation in overcoming its 1-month downtrend resistance.

Here's more from OCBC:

But with today’s tone likely to turn a tad more upside bias, we could see the index attempting to overcome this key obstacle again.

For now, we still see the immediate resistance at the 3163 immediate hurdle, followed by the next resistance at the 3230 support-turned-resistance.

On the downside. The 3060 key trough is still the immediate support, with the subsequent base lying at the 3000 key psychological support.

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.
