STI MARKET REVIEW :
Singapore's benchmark Straits Times Index (STI) opened 9.95 points or 0.33 per cent lower at 3,042.58 on Wednesday, following a retreat of shares on Wall Street overnight and ended 12.0 points or 0.39% lower to 3040.50. STI came off from its intra-day peak of 3055.81 and low of 3035.76.
Singapore stocks inched lower mid day, as investors awaited a rate-setting decision by the US Federal Reserve. Singapore's dollar will weaken about 2% versus the greenback by the end of the year after the city-state's central bank "slightly" reduced the pace of the currency's gains versus those of its trading partners this month.
LOCAL BOURSE
Singapore is likely to remain "perilously" close to a technical recession in the coming months, citing a slowdown in consumer demand and weak sentiment.
Singapore "narrowly averted" a technical recession in the third quarter, which economists commonly define as two consecutive quarters of decline in gross domestic product.
The revised reading of the third quarter GDP data may even change the scenario to a technical recession.
MARKET FORECAST
STI is expected to consolidate within the range of 3060 - 3025. It has broken its support of 3040 today. It has its next support at 3025 and resistance at 3060. Investors are cautious over the decision to be take in FED meeting to increase the US interest rate this year.
