    WE could get used to this - the benchmark Straits Times Index (STI) extending its gains from the previous day to close higher on Wednesday.

    This followed another set of record highs on Wall Street, which extended its post-United States election rally on Tuesday to push the three major indexes to record closing levels a second straight day.

    Singapore shares ended the session 17.49 points or 0.69 per cent up at 2,839.69; it had hit an intra-day high of 2,841.39, but retreated.
