M+ Market update – 7 Jun 24
Traders Focusing On Interest Rate Cuts
After a volatile move in the past few sessions fluctuating between the negative and positive territories, the FBMKLCI has finally stabilised above the 1,600 with the help from Utilities heavyweights. Meanwhile, the US stock markets traded mixed ahead of the jobs report that will be released later today. Nevertheless, we believe the traders and investors could be reassessing the corporate earnings and position for trading opportunities in the second half of 2024. On the commodity markets, Brent oil had rebounded following interest rate cuts actions by Canada and Europe, despite EIA indicating that the US oil inventories had risen last week, while the FCPO gained momentum overnight above the RM4,000 level. For gold, it has started to climb with the expectation of a potential earlier interest rate cut by the Fed.
Sectors focus: Still, the data center, AI and cloud services themes are materialising amongst stocks within the local front and we believe the Technology sector’s earnings have bottomed out and could translate to stronger price movements going forward. We believe the traders could focus on industry includes the HDD, hardware suppliers, cyber securities and EMS. Besides, there might be spillover effects towards stocks within the Construction, Property and Utilities sectors amid rising data center investments from MNCs on the local front.
