周三中午左右，新加坡股市上涨12点，涨幅0.3%，至4220点，追随美国总统唐纳德·特朗普宣布与日本达成新贸易协议后美国股指期货的涨幅。海峡时报指数创下历史新高，连涨13个交易日。交易员还展望了6月份的通胀数据，市场预计整体通胀率和核心通胀率将分别小幅上升至0.9%和0.7%。这些预测仍在新加坡金融管理局的目标范围内，这增加了人们对今年第三轮货币政策宽松的希望。支持市场情绪的是，上周的数据显示，新加坡第二季度的国内生产总值增长超过预期，而6月份的出口则出现了11个月来最强劲的增长。耐用消费品、商业服务和科技股领涨。表现最佳的包括星展集团（1.4%）、怡和单车（1.2%）、资本投资（0.7%）和城市发展（0.7%）。
Equities in Singapore rose 12 points, or 0.3%, to 4,220 around noon on Wednesday, tracking gains in US stock futures after US President Donald Trump announced new trade deals with Japan. The Straits Times Index (STI) reached a new record high, extending its winning streak to 13 consecutive sessions. Traders also looked ahead to June inflation data, with markets expecting both headline and core inflation to edge up slightly to 0.9% and 0.7%, respectively. The forecasts remain within the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s target range, raising hopes for a third round of monetary policy easing this year. Supporting sentiment, last week’s data showed that Singapore’s GDP grew more than expected in Q2, while exports in June posted their strongest increase in 11 months. Gains were led by consumer durables, commercial services, and tech stocks. Among the top performers were DBS Group (1.4%), Jardine Cycle & Carriage (1.2%), Capital Investment (0.7%), and City Developments (0.7%).
