Singapore shares rise on Wednesday; STI up 1.2%

Singapore stocks ended higher on Wednesday (Jul 22) as global chip stocks rebounded, led by various semiconductor counters.

The benchmark Straits Times Index (STI) gained 1.2 per cent or 68.70 points to finish at 5,595.42. Across the broader market, gainers outnumbered losers 290 to 279 after 1.2 billion securities worth S$2.4 billion changed hands.

Yangzijiang Shipbuilding : BS6 +5.63% was the top gainer on Singapore’s blue-chip index, rising 5.6 per cent or S$0.21 to S$3.94.

The worst performer among the STI constituents was Singapore Airlines : C6L -1.8%, which declined 1.8 per cent or S$0.14 to S$7.65.

The three local banks ended higher. DBS : D05 +2.31% gained 2.3 per cent or S$1.66 to close at S$73.66, OCBC : O39 +1.89% rose 1.9 per cent or S$0.54 to S$29.18, and UOB : U11 +0.75% was up 0.7 per cent or S$0.32 at S$43.04.

The Singapore Exchange also saw the debut of three of its first US Singapore Depository Receipts (SDRs) – Sea, Grab and SpaceX – at Wednesday’s market open.

S&P 500 is little changed as oil prices jump, traders gear up for more earnings:

Live updates

https://www.cnbc.com/2026/07/21/stock-market-today-live-updates.html?__source=androidappshare

Oil spiked overnight straight into Gareth's key $87 per barrel level — and he did exactly what the charts demanded: initiated a short right into the hype. Semis, which finally held their gains yesterday, are getting slammed again as crude presses higher, and the two are trading tick for tick against each other. On today's Trading Game Plan, Gareth #Soloway maps the S&P's bullish consolidation and the breakout level that opens the door to new highs, breaks down the oil/10-Year Yield correlation, and preps a massive after-hours earnings slate: Tesla, Alphabet, ServiceNow, IBM, and Texas Instruments.

📐 TODAY'S GAME PLAN

🔴 US OIL — Crude tags the $87–$88 resistance zone Gareth's charts predicted; short initiated with a pullback target near $80, possibly $78. Already fading below $87 during the broadcast.
🔵 SPY / ES FUTURES — Still inside a bullish consolidation above the 2021 trend line. A break above the key overhead level puts new highs and a higher S&P target in play; losing support would mark a dangerous failed breakout.
🔵 10-YR YIELD — Grinding higher in lockstep with oil since the July bottom. Oil is inflationary, and higher crude keeps rates higher for longer.
🔵 DXY / USD-JPY — Dollar in a slight bullish consolidation but stuck at resistance, a 50/50 no-trade. Dollar-yen at new highs — the carry-trade risk nobody is talking about.
🔵 SMCI — Rips on a huge reported backlog, but past accounting and chip-smuggling accusations keep Gareth on the sidelines. Trust the charts, verify the story.
🔵 GEV — GE Vernova misses on earnings as costs eat margins. Topping tail played out perfectly; dual-factor support at the gap fill plus trend line is on day-trade watch.
🔵 TSLA — Sitting right on a major support trend line into tonight's report. Break down and the retrace becomes shortable; hold and the long setup comes alive.
🔵 GOOGL / NOW / IBM / TXN — Alphabet with no clear edge, ServiceNow in a bullish consolidation into earnings, IBM's key pivot below $200 on watch, and Texas Instruments testing its trend line.
🟢 GOLD — Pushing right back into the wedge trend line breakout level. The pattern comes to a head August 14 — breakout or breakdown by that date.
🔵 SILVER — Creeping higher but with more work to do through two overhead resistance levels before the chart improves.
🔵 BITCOIN — Healthy pullback after tagging resistance. Clear the next big level and a higher target opens up.

🔑 KEY TAKEAWAY: Out of 100 charts, a disciplined trader passes on 97 of them. Oil hitting the exact level the charts predicted — while the crowd screamed higher — is why logic and charts beat hype and narratives every time.
