Malaysia:. The FBM KLCI (-0.3%) gapped down to finish lower again, dragged by weakness in banking and gloves heavyweights yesterday. The lower liners extended their decline, while the plantation sector (+0.4%) was the sole outperformer on the broader market.
Global markets:. Wall Street ended mildly higher as the Dow (+0.3%) managed to recoup all its intraday losses to snap a six-day losing streak, lifted by bargain hunting activities ahead of the two-day US FOMC meeting. The European stockmarkets extended their slide, while Asia stockmarkets ended mostly lower.
The FBM KLCI slumped in line with the weaker performance across regional bourses as investors were trading cautiously ahead of the FOMC meeting, where the officials will discuss about the monetary policies such interest rate direction moving forward. Nevertheless, following the V-shape rebound on Wall Street as most of the stocks were significantly oversold, we expect bargain hunting activities to emerge on the local bourse today, especially within the technology sector. Meanwhile, on the commodity markets, both the CPO and crude oil price declined but remained firm above RM5,200 and USD86 per barrel mark respectively.
Sector focus:. We believe investors may buy on dip ahead of the earnings season in February, especially technology stocks following the recent selldown. Besides, investors may put consumer and building material stocks on the radar given the improving economic conditions.
The FBM KLCI started the week on a downbeat note and the key index fell below the SMA50 level. Technical indicators remained negative as the MACD Histogram has extended a negative bar, while the RSI moved lower from the 50 level. The next support is located at 1,505, while the resistance is set at 1,570.
