Across the broader market, decliners narrowly beat out advancers 274 to 269. Daily turnover came in at 1.2 billion securities worth a collective S$962 million.Around the region, markets mostly closed lower on Wednesday. The Nikkei 225 lost 0.3 percent, the Hang Seng Index shed 0.1 percent, and the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI lost 0.4 percent. Meanwhile, the Kospi added 1.3 percent and the ASX 200 gained 0.4 percent.Stephen Innes, SPI asset management’s managing partner, said Powell’s latest comments meant there was still no “definitive hawkish deviation” from the Federal Reserve’s plot trajectory.For Asia, he said investors were in need of a “definite sign” that economic growth in China was catching up to where the market was pricing second-quarter recovery before “taking the next leap of faith”.In Singapore, banks were among the biggest gainers on Wednesday. UOB came out on top, adding 1 percent or S$0.30 to S$30.84. DBS rose 0.6 percent or S$0.20 to S$36.19, while OCBC advanced 1 percent or S$0.13 to S$13.15.Best World International , which had resumed trading in November last year after a three-and-a-half-year suspension, was one of the biggest losers on Wednesday. The stock lost 10.7 percent or S$0.27 to finish at S$2.26.StarHub was another loser, shedding 6.3 percent or S$0.07 to close at S$1.04 after it released a disappointing set of H2 results on Tuesday. The telco posted a 98.4 percent decline in earnings for H2 to S$1.3 million despite higher revenue.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":9954050481,"gmtCreate":1675862745244,"gmtModify":1675862748608,"author":{"id":"4096788696940590","authorId":"4096788696940590","name":"Saun","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5460605f8510ded6a3dd26ec0e0b988f","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"authorIdStr":"4096788696940590","idStr":"4096788696940590"},"htmlText":"Good news..","listText":"Good news..","text":"Good news..","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9954050481","repostId":1111237335,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9954026209,"gmtCreate":1675860004001,"gmtModify":1675860007845,"author":{"id":"3568898592347932","authorId":"3568898592347932","name":"YuTC968","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2d421272489b6ef78e6ec097b142ae78","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"authorIdStr":"3568898592347932","idStr":"3568898592347932"},"htmlText":"[Happy]&nbsp;Good la&nbsp;","listText":"[Happy]&nbsp;Good la&nbsp;","text":"[Happy] Good la","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9954026209","repostId":1111237335,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9954023384,"gmtCreate":1675857548549,"gmtModify":1675857551876,"author":{"id":"3575544575320394","authorId":"3575544575320394","name":"来人","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0af89587decbb8a1d3e1596adc29cb98","vip":1,"crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3575544575320394","idStr":"3575544575320394"},"htmlText":"Ok&nbsp;","listText":"Ok&nbsp;","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9954023384","repostId":1111237335,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"}],"isCommentEnd":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":51,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.29.1","shortVersion":"4.29.1","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/1111237335"}
