Singapore Stocks Poised to Open Lower After Straits Times Index Snaps Two-Day Rally

Singapore's stock market may extend losses on Thursday, Sept. 24, 2026, after the Straits Times Index ended a two-day winning streak on Wednesday. The benchmark shed its recent gains and now sits just below the 5,710-point plateau. The index had climbed almost 70 points, or 1.2 percent, over the prior two sessions before Wednesday's pullback. Further downside is expected at Thursday's open. Investors are watching the 5,710 level as near-term resistance, with regional sentiment and global market cues likely to drive direction.
