Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 1%

Another sharp pullback is likely today.

According to OCBC, the sharp drop on Wall Street overnight is going to depress local sentiment further, with the Nikkei down 1.9% in early trade. This should see the STI slipping below the key 3000 support.

Here's more from OCBC:

And once the 3000 support gives way, we could potentially see the index slipping further towards the 2800 region in the coming months.

Having said that, a return to that level would entice longer term investors to re-enter the market.

In the meantime, we peg the next intermediate support around 2960.

On the upside, we continue to peg the initial key hurdle at 3053 ahead of the next strong resistance at 3100.

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.
