Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 1.3%

Expect a rebound today.

According to OCBC, the rebound on Wall Street Friday night should bring a tinge of relief to the local bourse, especially after the STI’s sharp 1.3% fall last Friday, which also extended the index’s losing streak to the 10th session.

Here's more from OCBC:

However, the index looks due for a technical rebound; the daily RSI has fallen to just shy of the oversold region, but as the daily MACD has broken below the centre line and appears to be widening, the bears could still be in control.

Hence if the index fails to convincingly regain the support of the 100-DMA (now hovering around 2763, the index could slip further towards 2700; while the next support is likely found around 2650.

Overall volume was flat with 1.3b units traded, while average value climbed 14% to S$0.96, led by the sell-down in the local banks. Market breadth was also quite negative with losers outpacing gainers nearly 2:1.

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.
