Right timing: STI rally may encounter resistance soon

SINGAPORE (Jan 18): The rally by the Straits Times Index may encounter resistance as it approaches its declining 200-day moving average at 3,251. This may occur at a time when short term stochastics is approaching the top end of its range. The 21-day RSI is also near the top end of its range.

SINGAPORE (Dec 31): I owned the first-generation Hyundai Tucson when I first arrived in Singapore many years ago. For five glorious years, it served me well. But when the certificate of entitlement ran out, I made the hard decision not to renew it. As it was being driven off to be scrapped, I felt like I was losing a family member. Fast forward to 2018, and we now have a face-lifted third generation (the second generation was launched in 2010).
