Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 1.2%

Immediate obstacle pegged at the 3280 mark.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The poor Nikkei start (down 1.9% now) is likely to spook the local bourse to a negative opening this morning.

Following the sharp 1.2% slip yesterday, the STI is now likely to initiate a test of its firm 1-month uptrend support this morning.

Should this firm uptrend support be breached, the index could retreat further towards the 3200 psychological support for the next test.

On the upside, 3280 is now the immediate obstacle, followed by the next hurdle at the 3320 support-turned-resistance.

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.
