Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 1.6%

Immediate key support pegged at the 3000 mark.

OCBC Investment Research said:

The retreat by the US indices overnight and the weak Nikkei start (down 0.2% now) could continue to weigh on local sentiments this morning.

With the STI convincingly violating the 3100 key support yesterday with a 1.6% loss, it is likely that the index could see further pullback in the days ahead.

Meanwhile, the immediate key support is now pegged at the 3000 key psychological base, with the next support pegged at the 2930 key troughs.

On the upside, 3100 is now the newly established support-turned-resistance, as the subsequent obstacle lies at the 3230 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.
