Wall Street ended with a mixed performance as the 10- year US Treasury yield fell to 4.836%. However, the ongoing bond sell-off and concerns about an escalation in hostilities in the Middle East are exerting downward pressure on the market, resulting in a 191-point (-0.58%) drop in the DJIA. In contrast, the Nasdaq rose by 35 points (+0.27%) due to buying on selective buying in heavyweight stocks, particularly Apple and Arm. Back to Asia, Hong Kong was closed for a public holiday. As for the local bourse, the FBM KLCI dipped by nearly 3 points to close below 1,440 due to weak sentiment across the region. Overall market sentiment remains pessimistic as investors continue to fret about the global economic condition and geopolitical tensions. Hence, we expect the benchmark index to maintain its sideways pattern and trend within the 1,435-1,445 range for today. We expect investors to accumulate blue chips such as Banks and telcos stocks for better defensive strategy.
