Malaysia:. The FBM KLCI (+0.3%) edged higher, mainly driven by gains in telco heavyweights yesterday. The lower liners, however, ended mixed, while the property (+1.4%) sector anchored the mostly positive sectorial peers after closing at its highest level in more than 1 month.
Global markets:. US stockmarkets extended their lead as the Dow (+1.3%) advanced after investors shook off the concern over the hawkish remarks from the US Federal Reserve and focus on the US midterm elections. Both the European and Asia stock markets ended mostly on an upbeat note.
The FBM KLCI ended a choppy session higher, mainly buoyed by the telecommunication heavyweights as foreign funds returned for the second consecutive day. While the local bourse may cheer on hopes over China’s reopening, investors may remain cautiously optimistic as the US inflation data which will due later this week may indicate a prolonged interest rate upcycle environment, adding more risk to the shaky stock market. Commodities wise, the crude oil price held above USD97 per barrel mark, while the CPO traded above RM4,400.
Sector focus:. As the polling day for GE15 is getting closer, the election-theme sectors may set to take the centre stage over the near term. Meanwhile, investors may favour stocks with positive outlook prior to the earnings season such as consumer and O&G stocks. The energy and plantation sectors could remain its uptrend move on the back of firmer commodity prices.
The FBM KLCI wrapped up a volatile session in the green as the key index climbed above its daily EMA9 level. Technical indicators were mixed as the MACD Histogram is negative, while the RSI hovered above the 50 level. The resistance is 1,465-1,480, while support is envisaged at 1,410-1,420.
