Malaysia:. The FBM KLCI (-0.2%) extended its decline with more than half of the key index constituents closed in the red yesterday. Both the lower liners and the broader market ended mixed with the energy sector (-2.7%) underperformed the latter after crude oil prices skid lower.
Global markets:. Wall Street rebounded as the Dow (+1.3%) recovered all its previous session losses in anticipation of softer labour data and that may provide some cushion to the concern over inflationary pressure. The European stock markets ended mostly upbeat, but Asia stock markets closed mostly weaker.
The FBM KLCI declined marginally into the negative territory as cautious sentiment persisted on the local bourse. Nevertheless, we expect to see bargain hunting activities across the sectors given the strong rebound on Wall Street overnight. We believe crude oil price to remain elevated for the near term on the back of reduced Russian output and larger-than-expected drawdown in the US inventories, thus inflationary pressure may not abate anytime soon. Both the CPO and Brent crude oil prices were on the rise, with the former trading around RM6,500, while the latter trading above USD117 per barrel.
Sector focus:. We noticed increased trading interest in the poultry sector and we believe the sector will continue to gain traction prior to the removal of price caps on chickens and eggs in July 2022. Meanwhile, the overnight rally in Nasdaq should boost further recovery in the technology sector. Also, we believe energy stocks could be traded actively with the rebound in oil price.
The FBM KLCI fell below its daily EMA9 level on the back of mild profit taking activities. Technical indicators were mixed as the MACD Histogram extended a positive bar, while the RSI is hovering below the 50 level. The next support level remained at 1,500-1,530, while the resistance is pegged around 1,570-1,580.
