Singapore Shares Fall Ahead of U.S. CPI Data -- Market Talk

Dow Jones12-11

0932 GMT - Singapore's FTSE Straits Times Index closed 0.5% lower at 3792.82. Focus remains on inflation, as a higher-than-expected U.S. CPI print due later today might not deter the Fed from cutting rates next week but could influence anticipated rate cuts priced from March onward, potentially affecting the trajectory of the U.S. dollar, Saxo Markets' APAC Research team writes in a note. CapitaLand Investment fell 1.85%, Genting Singapore lost 1.3% and ST Engineering was 1.1% lower. Meanwhile, Thai Beverage gained 1.8%, Yangzijiang Shipbuilding rose 1.5% and CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust was 0.5% higher. (kimberley.kao@wsj.com)
