Singapore's stock market surged on Wednesday, as US Treasury yields rose with Singapore's inflation easing up.

The Straits Times Index, a key benchmark for the Singapore Exchange, ranged between 3,587.89 and 3,616.84 throughout the day. It ended the session at 3,600.78, up 13.37 points or 0.37% compared to Tuesday's close.

In economic news, Singapore's headline consumer price index, or overall inflation, eased up 2.0% year on year in September from 2.2% in August, largely due to a steeper fall in private transport costs.
