Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.73%

Expect muted gains today.

According to OCBC, further weakness on Wall Street last Friday could continue to weigh on local sentiment, potentially extending the STI’s 2-day losing streak.

Here's more from OCBC:

Previously, we note that the STI was ripe for a healthy correction following the strong run-up over the previous five sessions; daily RSI has turned down just shy of the overbought region.

As before, we peg the immediate support around 2820, ahead of the key 2800 psychological level; on the upside, we peg the initial hurdle at 2880, ahead of the strong 2900 psychological level.

Meanwhile, overall volume picked up on Friday, +29% with 1.45b units traded; but total value was just up 3% at S$966.6m, as the average value/unit slipped 20% to S$0.67.

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.
