Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 2.9%

Another pullback is likely today.

According to OCBC, although Wall Street staged a late recovery to end mostly flat to tad higher, the US index futures are back in the red, suggesting that the overall tone is likely to remain somewhat muted.

Here's more from OCBC:

While the STI, down 2.9% yesterday, looks heavily oversold, any near-term rebound is likely to be quite shallow and we could see investors using it to exit stale longs.

Currently, the STI is holding just above the initial 3053, while the next key support remains at 3000 – a breach of this would not bode well for the index.

On the upside, we peg the initial hurdle at 3100 and the next at 3150.

Technically, the local banks also look heavily oversold and should see some form of technical rebound in the near term.

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.
