Singapore Stocks May Stall After Two-Session Rally; STI Holds Above 5,720

Singapore's Straits Times Index may tread water on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, after gaining almost 70 points, or 1.2 percent, over two consecutive winning sessions to sit just above the 5,720-point plateau. The index's momentum shows signs of exhaustion, with the market likely to spin its wheels rather than extend gains. No specific catalysts were cited for the pause. Traders are watching for direction after the benchmark's recent advance, with the STI's ability to hold the 5,720 level in focus.
