Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.3%

Index seen to drift lower.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The pullback on Wall Street Friday is likely to weigh further on local sentiment today, extending Friday's 0.3% slide, as profit-taking continues.

Once again, the index is likely to find it tough to overcome the key 3200 psychological barrier in the near term amidst the dearth of newsflows.

For now, we think that the index may drift lower to fill the 3051-3071 gap before moving higher.

Before that, 3157 (38.2% retracement of the 2990-3260 rally) will act as the initial support.

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.
