Wall Street ended mixed amid a choppy session as traders are waiting for Alphabets’ earnings that is due later today. Meanwhile, the US 10-year yield declined to 4.256%. Over in Hong Kong, the HSI maintained its upward trajectory but closed off its day’s high. Sentiment was buoyed by robust earnings from HSBC and biopharmaceutical company Wuxi AppTec that beat expectations. Back home, after a 4-day decline, the FBM KLCI finally ended on a positive note attributed to some bargain hunting activities. Nonetheless, overall sentiment remains cautious as depicted by the low volume traded. Meanwhile, it is worthwhile noting that the CPO price has trended at its YTD high thus giving hopes of a potential blockbuster 4Q for the planters. All said, we are hopeful the index to maintain its rebound thus expect it to hover within the 1,615-1,625 range today.
