Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 1.7%

Expect a technical rebound today.

OCBC said that after yesterday’s sharp tumble, the STI may get a modest technical rebound; although Wall Street ended lower last night, US index futures are showing a slight rebound; HSI futures are also showing a small recovery.

Here's more from OCBC:

But with Nikkei opening 1.6% lower, the overall tone is likely to remain cautious and selling into strength may still be the more prudent approach for now, especially after the STI slipped below two key supports yesterday.

As such, these will act as key hurdles in the near term – the first at 3291 and the other at 3302, while the main cap sits around 3357.

On the downside, the first support can be found at 3266, ahead of 3200.

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.
