Well, even when Singapore stocks have corrected like now, to 3,260.84, and headed south by more than 10%, the reality is that the STI now is still considered high. This is because we are comparing against a high base, that of the STI last year which was a very good and bullish year for stocks. Thus seen in this light, even if there is a technical rebound, I would think year 2018 will not be as bullish as last year, thus would be skeptical of any sustainable rebound to recapture the high of 3,600 and more again.
In a nutshell, the macro for equities now is less favorable than last year. Join the emailing list to receive regular Financial and Singapore stocks newsletters too!
