FBM KLCI rises to 1,524.31 at midday as market eyes US-China trade talks

KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia ended the morning trading session in positive territory amid cautious optimism in the market, as the wait continued for the outcome of the trade talks between the United States (US) and China. At 12.30pm, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) rose by 7.36 points to 1,524.31 from Tuesday's close of 1,516.95. The benchmark index opened 3.91 points higher at 1,520.86 -- the lowest level so far in the day -- and increased as high as 1,530.85 during the session. Gainers thumped losers 459 to 364 in the broader market, while a total of 474 counters were unchanged, 1,072 untraded and 11 suspended. Turnover stood at 2.0 billion units valued at RM1.16 billion. Public Bank Investment Bank Bhd said global stock markets were higher as talks between the world's two largest economies carried into a second day. "Stocks have roared higher since dropping roughly 20 per cent below their record two months ago, after a series of tariff announcements shocked financial markets, which raised worries about a possible recession. "Much of the rally has been due to hopes that Trump would lower his tariffs after reaching trade deals with countries around the world," it said in a note. Among the heavyweights, CIMB was nine sen firmer at RM6.94, YTL Power and YTL Corporation added 11 sen each to RM3.62 and RM2.13, respectively, and Public Bank improved two sen to RM4.28, while CelcomDigi was flat at RM3.78. The top gainers were led by Allianz which gained 30 sen to RM19.42, followed by Sunway Construction which rose 26 sen to RM6.23, and F&N and Batu Kawan which racked up 18 sen each to RM27.98 and RM19.18, respectively. Among the most active stocks, MYEG advanced one sen to 96.0 sen, while TWL and Ta Win were flat at 2.5 sen and two sen, respectively. On the index board, the FBM Emas Index went up 43.27 points to 11,437.39, the FBMT 100 Index rose 44.49 points to 11,204.04, and the FBM Emas Shariah Index climbed 32.26 points to 11,401.48. The FBM 70 Index expanded 27.66 points to 16,514.32 and the FBM ACE Index stepped up 4.44 points to 4,515.22. Sector-wise, the Industrial Products and Services Index increased by 0.42 point to 152.33, the Plantation Index firmed 19.65 points to 7,229.68, and the Financial Services Index bagged 74.95 points to 17,769.26.

Bursa Malaysia opens firmer amid heavyweight buying support

KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia opened on a firmer note on Wednesday, with the key index climbing 0.46 per cent, buoyed by buying interest in heavyweight counters and tracking Wall Street, which ended broadly higher. At 9.05 am, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) raked in 7.06 points to 1,524.01 from Tuesday's close of 1,516.95. The benchmark index opened at 1,520.86, higher by 3.91 points. Market breadth was positive with 156 advancers versus 74 decliners, while 220 counters were unchanged, 1,919 untraded and 11 suspended. Turnover stood at 81.25 million units, valued at RM46.47 million. Rakuten Trade Sdn Bhd equity research vice-president Thong Pak Leng elaborated that Wall Street ended broadly higher as traders hoped for a positive resolution from the ongoing trade discussions between China and the United States (US). "Although the US has been sounding rather bullish on the negotiation, the situation remains fluid as China remains quiet," he told Bernama. Back home, the FBM KLCI, as usual, ended slightly lower, possibly due to foreign selling again, while the lack of interest in domestic equities has been quite profound of late, as trading activities have been muted over the past months. "In the absence of fresh incentives, there was no allure for traders to delve into the local bourse, hence the waning interests. "Even the initial public offerings were not spared, as most registered marginal gains at best. For today, we expect the index to hover within the 1,510-1,520 range," he said. Among the heavyweight counters, CIMB added six sen to RM6.91, YTL rose five sen to RM3.56, Public Bank accumulated two sen to RM4.28, and CelcomDigi and YTL were three sen better at RM3.81 and RM2.05, respectively. Among the most active stocks, MPire advanced half-a-sen to 12 sen, Benalec was 1.5 sen higher at 10 sen, Eversendai warrant was unchanged at 8.5 sen, KNM was flat at three sen, and CTOS lost two sen to 96 sen. On the index board, the FBM Emas Index rose 39.43 points to 11,433.55, the FBMT 100 Index improved 44.18 points to 11,203.73, and the FBM Emas Shariah Index rose 33.28 points to 11,402.50. The FBM 70 Index gained 34.50 points to 16,521.16 and the FBM ACE Index ticked up 4.14 points to 4,514.92. Sector-wise, the Financial Services Index garnered 64.06 points to 17,758.37, the Industrial Products and Services Index notched up 0.27 of a point to 152.18, and the Plantation Index gained 20.14 points to 7,230.17. However, the Energy Index trimmed 0.08 of-a-point to 723.23.
