Malaysia:. The FBM KLCI (-0.1%) halted a 7-day winning streak as profit taking activities emerged amongst oil & gas and banking heavyweights on last Friday. The lower liners turned mixed, but the broader market closed mostly upbeat with the plantation sector (+1.9%) continues to anchor the winners list.
Global markets:. Wall Street remained volatile as the Dow (-0.7%) fell amid the on going concerns over the geopolitical risk between Russia and Ukraine, while traders also locked in profits ahead of the extended weekend break. The European stockmarkets also trended lower, while Asia stockmarkets closed mostly lower.
Buying momentum fizzled on the FBM KLCI, in line with most of the regional peers last Friday following the slump on Wall Street amid the ongoing tension between Ukraine and Russia. Hence, with the negative sentiment that took place on Wall Street, we expect the local technology counters are likely to continue underperforming the broader market. Investors may turn their heads to commodities related or consumer stocks over the near term as commodity prices remains elevated at this juncture. The CPO price hovered above the RM5,500 level, while the Brent oil price traded above USD90 per barrel mark.
Sector focus:. Given the Brent oil is holding up well last week, we reckon the rally in energy stocks may continue. Meanwhile, the recent resurgence of Covid-19 cases and the increase in number of hospitalisations may boost trading activities within the vaccine and glove related players.
The FBM KLCI snapped its seven-session gains, but the key index managed to stay above the 1,600 psychological level. Technical indicators are positive but could be extended as the MACD is above the zero level, while the RSI is in the overbought region. Resistance is pegged around 1,620-1,640, while the support is set at 1,570- 1,580.
