The FBM KLCI continued to decline (-0.7%) due to foreign fund rotation towards China and Hong Kong, with Utilities (+0.7%) and REITs (+0.6%) leading gains, while Energy (-1.2%) and Construction (-1.1%) sectors saw the largest losses.
US markets ended positively, with the S&P 500 hitting a record high after the Fed Chairman’s dovish speech boosted confidence in the US economy. European markets closed lower, and Asian markets had mixed results.
Looking ahead, local markets may see bargain hunting, supported by Wall Street momentum and reduced foreign outflows during China’s week-long holiday.
Investors will focus on key US economic data, with sectors like Consumer, Financial, and Tourism expected to gain, while export-oriented sectors may face challenges from a stronger MYR.
