Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.4%

Index likely to stage a modest technical rebound today.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The STI ended 0.4% lower yesterday, after concerns over the weakening SGD and increasingly muted China prospects overshadowed the positive close on Wall Street on Friday.

But on a more positive note, the index managed to close above immediate 3149 support (centre of Bollinger band); and this could provide a near-term base for the STI to stage a modest technical rebound.

However, unless it can convincingly trigger a parabolic buy signal around 3204, we could still see selling into the strength, especially if the index fails to even clear the 3200 hurdle.

And if that happens, the STI could head back towards 3100 (psychological support) and even 3072 (lower Bollinger band).

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.
