It's not like Malaysia is isolated from other countries, so Malaysian stock prices should get affected by foreign stock prices. Stocks in other countries have been very bullish. Malaysian stocks should catch up with them.

Most Asian markets advance after lower-than-expected U.S. inflation data

KUALA LUMPUR (Nikkei Markets) -- Singapore stocks rose for a third day on Monday, tracking gains in most regional markets after lower-than-expected U.S. inflation data. Malaysia stocks were little changed amid lingering concerns over foreign fund outflows.

SE Asia Stocks-Most gain; Singapore hits over 2-month high
Oct 16 (Reuters) - Southeast Asian stock markets broadly ended higher on Monday, with Singapore hitting an over two-month high, reflecting strength in global equities after upbeat Chinese data.

Asian shares rallied to a decade-high after figures showed China's producer prices beat market expectations, while Singapore shares extended gains for a third session on better-than-expected economic growth in the July-September quarter. MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose for a fifth straight session to its highest since late 2007. The trade-reliant economy's September export data is due on Tuesday. Analysts polled by Reuters expect a fifth consecutive month of rise in non-oil domestic exports. "Singapore reported very strong economic growth, and overall sentiment in the global economy is at a sustainable pace, attributed to the inflation on the U.S. side," said Colin Tan, an analyst from KGI Securities.

In the United States, soaring gasoline prices helped consumer prices in September grow the most in eight months, but underlying inflation remained muted. In Southeast Asia, Indonesian stocks ended 0.4 percent higher after data showed that the region's largest economy posted a trade surplus, higher than what was recorded in August. Thai stocks rose 0.9 percent to a fresh 24-year high, with energy and financial stocks driving gains.

Malaysia's benchmark index was flat at the end of trade as gains in utilities were offset by losses in financials.

KUALA LUMPUR (Oct 3): RHB Retail Research said MMS Ventures Bhd may rise higher after it breached above the downtrend line drawn in the chart.

In a trading stocks note today, the research house said this can be viewed as a continuation of the bulls extending the rebound from Sept 11’s “Hammer” pattern.

“A bullish bias may emerge above the RM1.85 level, with an exit set below the RM1.74 threshold.

“Towards the upside, the immediate resistance level is at RM2.05. This is followed by the RM2.20 level,” it said.

Caution:Don't sell Malaysian stocks now!

Only Malaysian stocks have been bearish recently. Stocks in the rest of the world are bullish. Don't sell Malaysian stocks in that case. It's not like stocks around the world are bearish. No actual risk-off sentiment has been prominent. In fact the KLCI rose before the closing today as it was oversold.It's a matter of time for Malaysian stocks to catch up with stocks in the rest of the world.

KLCI: Malaysian people tend to follow local meaningless news with stock price forecasts. That's why KLCI movement has diverged from the rest of the world.. miserable

Buy KESM before the closing.

But there are good, mediocre and bad investors. Even if they invest in same stocks, the results would be different.

All depend on your strategies and needs. Threre are no correct answers.

Don't get mislead by news and media. Other emerging markets than the Malaysian market are very bullish. Loal news focus too much on negative factors.Things like commodity price rally, bullish world stock markets and Chinese good import and export statistics have not been priced in yet.

Malaysian stocks are on a bargain sales now. Due to uncertainty of Budget 2018 and GE14, KLCI has been sluggish recently, but things like commodity price rally, bullish world stock markets and Chinese good import and export statistics have not been priced in yet. You cannot just focus on one or two things. Positive influence has been huge in recent global markets.
