  • Singapore Stocks Slide 1.9% Amid Global Tech Sell-off and Middle East Tensions
    June 8, 2026, 5:33 AM EDT. Singapore's Straits Times Index (STI) dropped 1.9% to 4,955.47 on June 8, pressured by a global slump in technology shares and escalating Middle East conflicts. Major tech stocks, including AEM and UMS, fell between 3-4%, while precision engineering and AI-related firm InnoTek declined over 4%. Regional markets fell sharply, with South Korea's Kospi down 8.1%, Japan's Nikkei by 4%, and Taiwan's benchmark by 3.5%. Key chipmakers Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix saw steep losses of 9.5% and 6.5%, respectively. The tech sell-off followed Broadcom's weaker-than-expected revenue guidance, raising fears of an AI investment bubble. Local banks DBS, OCBC, and UOB also declined amid rising inflation concerns driven by higher oil prices and geopolitical risks. The volatile market reflects investor caution ahead of SpaceX's Nasdaq IPO slated for June 12.
