Market update: The FBM KLCI shrugged off most of its intraday losses as profit taking activities emerged after a brief rebound last week. We reckon that further recovery is in store with the key index looking to take another jab towards 1,400. The lower liners may continue to capitalise onto the calmer market condition on the back of rotational play. Meanwhile, investors’ attention may shift towards the upcoming FOMC minutes meeting mid-week to provide further clues over the pace of future interest rate hikes. Commodities wise, the Brent crude oil tipped above USD76 on expectations of further production cuts in anticipation of slower demand from China, while the CPO price maintained above RM3,900.
Sector focus: The energy sector may take cue from the stability in crude oil prices. We continue to favour the technology sector that is riding onto the recovery wave, tracking the positive developments on Nasdaq recently. Meanwhile, the telecommunications & media sector may be boosted by CelcomDigi’s launch of MY5G Series to accelerate 5G adoption.
