Malaysia:. The FBM KLCI (-0.4 %) extended its declining streak as the key index mirrored the weakness across regional peers on last Friday. The lower liners also slid lower, while the healthcare sector (+4.2%) outperformed the negative broader market amid the emergence of new Covid-19 variant in South Africa.
Global markets:. US stockmarkets endured a Black Friday slump as the Dow (-2.5%) was battered by the resurgence of concern over the new Covid-19 variant in South Africa which may potentially stall the economic recovery. Both the European and Asia stockmarkets also tumbled on the Covid-19 news.
The FBM KLCI swung lower for the fourth straight session amid concerns over new Omicron Covid-19 variant; foreign investors stayed as net sellers, pulling out RM42.8m from the local bourse on Friday. The worries on the emergence of new Covid-19 variant may result in a mixed sentiment as the data such as infectivity and mortality rate will only be known by another 1-2 weeks. In the meantime, tracking the mild rebound in overseas futures at the point of writing, there is a slight chance for a technical rebound move today, but upside will be capped as Covid-19 concerns remain valid. Commodities wise, the crude oil price dropped over 11.0% as market worries that the Covid-19 conditions may eventually result in oil supply surplus, while the CPO price fell.
Sector focus:. Selldown in recovery theme sector may continue with more countries imposing travel bans, while we could expect fresh buying interest within the healthcare sector at least for the near term. Nevertheless, bargain hunting will emerge if the selldown is significant on the recovery theme sectors.
The FBM KLCI declined further away from the 1,520 support level following Friday’s selldown. Technical indicators remained negative as the MACD Histogram has extended a negative bar, while the RSI hovered below the 50 level. The next support level is pegged at 1,500, while the resistance is pegged along 1,535-1,560.
