Local Bourse fails to maintain the mark

The FBM KLCI failed to maintain above the 1,620 mark after a positive opening as sellers came out in force amid a rather weak regional performance.

Though this is deemed a healthy market correction, we believe the index needs to re-test the 1,620 level as soon as possible before the ongoing consolidation is prolonged. “Therefore, we expect the index to trend between the 1,615-1,625 range today,” says Rakuten Trade.
