Sentiment may improve following Wall Street’s rebound

The FBM KLCI experienced a sharp selloff, dropping below the 1,500 psychological level due to persistent foreign fund outflows and weak institutional support amid tariff concerns.

Wall Street

However, sentiment may improve today following Wall Street’s rebound, though gains could be limited by ongoing uncertainties. Investors are closely watching US PPI data and jobless claims for clues on the Federal Reserve’s next move.

Sector Focus: The Financial sector saw a steep correction, presenting buying opportunities in strong banking stocks. Meanwhile, resilient blue-chip stocks in Financials, Telecommunications, and Consumer sectors remain favorable, while the Transportation sector is expected to stay strong amid potential port tariff hikes.

Technical Outlook: The FBM KLCI remains under pressure, with negative indicators as the MACD stays below the Signal Line and the RSI in oversold territory. Immediate resistance is at 1,570, while support is around 1,500.
