SINGAPORE - Singapore share prices ended mixed on Tuesday as investors took profits from a recent rally while a holiday in the United States meant Wall Street provided no strong pointers.
The blue-chip Straits Times Index (STI) ended 1.51 points higher at 3036.09. But in the broader market, losers beat gainers 252 to 184. Overall volume traded was 1.31 billion shares worth S$1.23 billion.
Tracking the weakness in the broader market, investors booked profit in commodity counters and rig builders. Olam International lost 1.4% to S$2.72. Wilmar International ended 1.5% lower at S$6.38. Noble Group ended flat at S$1.71 after being in the red for most of the day. Rig builder Sembcorp Marine dropped 0.3% to S$3.97.
