Singapore Composite Index Expected To Weigh On Thursday Amid Liquidity Drought

The Singapore Composite Index (SICI) is forecast to decline on Thursday, February 6, 2026, amid tight liquidity and reduced trading volume. The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has signaled no immediate policy easing, while regional economic data points to softening demand. With the index down 0.8% in the previous session and a 2025 year-to-date drop of 12.3%, traders are bracing for further weakness as foreign institutional flows remain negative. Supporting context: The SICI reflects broad market sentiment and is sensitive to changes in regional capital flows and policy guidance from MAS.
