Malaysia:. The FBM KLCI (+0.2%) snapped a five-day losing streak, lifted by gains in selected plantations and Petronas-related heavyweights yesterday. The lower liners managed to hold onto their intraday gains, while the REIT sector (+2.0%) outperformed the mostly positive broader market.
Global markets:. US stockmarkets turned volatile again as the Dow (-1.9%) sank, as sentiment turned cautious on US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell weighing on earlier-than-expected bond tapering and interest rate hike. European stockmarkets also retraced, while Asia stockmarkets ended mostly lower.
The FBM KLCI rebounded, bucking the negative momentum across the regional markets as bargain hunting activities emerged after five sessions of selldown. However, tracking the overnight significant losses on Wall Street, the upside may be limited and our local market may remain volatile amid concerns over the development surrounding the Covid-19 Omicron variant. Nevertheless, some investors may take advantage to add positions into glove companies. On the oil prices, a report by Reuters saw a slower pace of supply increases from OPEC+ in November but OPEC+ expected an oversupply situation of global oil in 1Q2022; crude oil plunge more than 5%. Meanwhile, CPO price declined near to 4%.
Sector focus:. Investors may look for opportunities into December window dressing period. Meanwhile, glove stocks may be traded actively on the back of Omicron variant concerns. Nevertheless, we believe traders may take a step back from oil and gas and plantation stocks following the declining CPO and crude oil prices.
The FBM KLCI rebounded amid high trading volume but failed to close above the daily EMA9 level. Technical indicators remained negative as the MACD Histogram has extended a negative bar, while the RSI hovered below the 50 level. The support level is located at 1,500, while the next resistance is pegged along 1,535-1,560.
