Weekly Technical view on STI
U.S. Federal Reserve’s policy statement came in the mid-month had a great impact on the market. The Great Financial Crisis of 2007-09 kicked into full-gear some six or seven years ago and caused the Straits Times Index to plummet almost two-thirds from its pre-crisis peak. Although Singapore’s share market bellwether is still 15% below its pre-crisis peak of 3,876 points reached in October 2007, the recovery these past few years has still been really strong.
