S'pore shares left out of regional rally amid weaker sentiment

The Straits Times

|

February 15, 2025

• STI down 0.1%; biggest decliner is SGX, falling 5.8% • Hongkong Land tops local index, rising 4.1% • Most regional bourses take cue from Wall St and chalk gains

- Navene Elangovan

Local shares were left out in the cold on Feb 14, while most regional bourses followed Wall Street higher in hopes of an end to the Ukraine war and a pause on US tariffs.

The mood here was more of indifference and sent the benchmark Straits Times Index (STI) down 0.1 per cent, or 5.08 points, to 3,877.50. In the broader market, gainers outstripped losers 349 to 219 on reasonable trade of 1.5 billion shares worth $1.4 billion.
