SINGAPORE shares ended a three-session rally on Wednesday, as optimism from progress on Covid-19 vaccines was marred by disappointing industrial production figures.
The Straits Times Index fell 0.66 per cent or 16.95 points to close at 2,542.08. Advancers outpaced decliners 204 to 201, after some 2.53 billion securities worth S$1.16 billion changed hands.
