Data centre-related stocks in Malaysia may continue to gain traction after previous losses, while trading is expected to be subdued ahead of the mid-week festive break.

Construction, Utilities, and Property: Bargain hunting may persist, driven by optimism in data centre stocks.
Plantation: Buying interest could rise, following stronger CPO prices due to weaker output in Malaysia and Indonesia.
Banking: Renewed interest may emerge amid global market volatility, given its safe-haven appeal.
