DJ MARKET TALK: Singapore's STI May Open Lower, Test Support At 3000
0045 GMT [Dow Jones] Singapore's STI may extend Thursday's 1.0% fall to 3012.25 and test support at 3000, after overnight weakness on Wall Street and European markets. "As we end 2012, the term 'fiscal cliff' is likely to become overly used as 'eurozone crisis' and 'Greek exit' have now become," says Jason Hughes, the head of premium client management at IG Markets; "sadly, as politicians both sides of the Atlantic have repeatedly shown they are unlikely to reach a compromise until we reach the eleventh hour, it will be the harbinger of doom until the year end at least." However, improved earnings are likely to keep the likes of
Noble Group (
N21.SG),
Wilmar International (
F34.SG) and
Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp. (
O39.SG) in focus.
Fraser & Neave (
F99.SG) is also likely to be eyed after TCC Assets Thursday again extended the deadline for its takeover bid for the former to Nov. 22 without raising its US$7.2 billion offer
