Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.6%

What could this imply?

According to OCBC, with US indices rebounding overnight and the Nikkei having a strong start (up 2% now), this is likely to provide some inspiration to the local bourse this morning.

OCBC said that despite retreating as much as 1.7% intraday yesterday, the STI regain much of those losses to end the day just 0.6% in the red; this suggests that investors have started picking up shares on bargain hunting.

Here's more from OCBC:

And with today’s tone likely to improve further, we could see the index recovering further towards the 3130 minor support-turned-resistance.

Above that, the next hurdle lies at the 3180 region (3-month downtrend resistance). On the downside, 3070 key trough is now the immediate support, with the next base pegged at the 3000 key psychological level.

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.
