Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 1.44%

Expect more losses today.

According to OCBC, US stocks finished Monday at their lowest levels since late August as concerns about slowing economic growth in China and mixed domestic economic data unnerved investors.

Here’s more from OCBC:

The sharp sell-off on Wall Street overnight is likely to continue to weigh on local sentiment and send more investors heading towards the exit, especially after the STI cracked the key 2800 support yesterday.

Although the STI managed to hold above the next immediate support at 2762, we note that unless the STI can convincingly retake the 2800 support-turned-resistance level, we could see the index slipping lower towards the 2600 region in the medium term.

Above 2800, the next hurdle lies at 2850 and then 2900.

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.
