Technology led gains, construction lagged; focus remains on power ancillary, renewable energy, and domestic plays driven by data centre and energy transition.

Technology – Best performer (+1.2%), driven by strong buying interest, in line with Nasdaq’s overnight gains and robust global tech sentiment.

Growth

Construction – Worst performer (-0.9%), weighed down despite broader market strength, likely from sector-specific weakness or profit-taking.

Power ancillary & renewable energy – Favoured for selective accumulation, supported by structural growth drivers such as data centre expansion and energy transition trends.

Domestic-oriented plays – Benefiting from resilience despite global trade headwinds; positioned for longer-term growth.
