Malaysia:. The FBM KLCI (+0.1%) inched higher to register its seventh consecutive winning run, supported by gains across selected plantation heavyweights yesterday. The lower liners also advanced, but the broader market ended mixed with the plantation sector (+3.9%) leading the pack as CPO prices rallied.
Global markets:. Wall Street was beset by another round of volatility as the Dow (- 1.8%) sank on concern over the renewed geopolitical risk between Russia and Ukraine. The European stockmarkets turned downbeat, erasing all their intraday gains, while Asia stockmarkets ended mixed.
While global stock markets continued to be spooked by the flared-up tension between Ukraine and Russia, the FBM KLCI managed to hold above the 1,600 psychological level as rallies in plantation heavyweights, positioning ahead of the reporting season. Given the firm crude palm oil and crude oil prices, we expect the sentiment on both the sectors will remain positive at least for the near term. Meanwhile, we noticed consumer and construction sectors have started the rebound recently; the consumer sector is expected to provide solid growth in their upcoming earnings following BJFOOD’s result last week.
Sector focus:. The firm CPO price is hovering above RM5,500 level should continue to lend support to the plantation sector, albeit profit taking is possible in selected companies following the strong rally yesterday. Meanwhile, the technology stocks may retreat, tracking the Nasdaq overnight plunge on Wall Street.
The FBM KLCI ended with mild gains after wiping off most of the intraday profit, extending its gains for the 7th straight session. Technical indicators remained positive as the MACD stayed above the zero level, while the RSI hovered around the overbought region. The next resistance is located at 1,620, while the support is now set around 1,570-1,580.
