Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 1.5%
Expect another retreat today.
According to OCBC, the retreat on Wall Street overnight is unlikely to provide any inspiration to the local bourse this morning.
Here's more from OCBC:
After another unexpected 1.5% plunge yesterday, the STI is hovering just above its 1.5-year key uptrend support at around 3330; a convincing break below this key trend-line could invite further selling pressure.
Nevertheless, we think that the formation of a base and a technical rebound around current levels is more likely following its recent sharp decline.
For now, we are pegging the immediate resistance at the 3390 support-turned-resistance.
