Market Daily Report: Bursa Malaysia Ends At Intraday Low Amid Mixed Regional Sentiment

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 14 (Bernama) -- Bursa Malaysia failed to sustain the buying momentum seen most of the day to end at an intraday low on late selling of selected utilities and plantation heavyweight counters, amid a mixed performance in regional peers.

At 5 pm, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) fell 9.13 points, or 0.57 per cent, to 1,576.46 from Monday’s close of 1,585.59. 



The benchmark index, which opened 7.38 points higher at 1,592.97, moved between 1,576.46 and 1,599.43 during the trading session.

The broader market was negative with decliners leading gainers 588 to 400, while 529 counters were unchanged, 842 untraded, and 17 suspended.

Turnover increased to 3.45 billion units valued at RM2.72 billion against Monday’s 2.85 billion units valued at RM2.54 billion.

UOB Kay Hian Wealth Advisors head of investment research Mohd Sedek Jantan said the index had opened higher, reflecting initial strength and hinting at a recovery from the declines accumulated over the past week.

“However, the momentum waned as the session progressed, reflecting continued caution among investors. Nonetheless, signs of a rebound emerged as bargain hunters capitalised on undervalued blue-chip stocks.

“This cautious optimism reflects the market's underlying resilience, but also its vulnerability to external pressures such as global economic challenges and geopolitical uncertainties,” he told Bernama.

Regionally, Mohd Sedek said the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone, formalised last week, is poised to drive regional economic growth and attract cross-border investments.

“Although its immediate impact has been overshadowed by recent market volatility, the initiative’s long-term potential remains promising, with benefits likely to become more evident as market conditions stabilise,” he added.

Regionally, Japan’s Nikkei 225 fell 1.83 per cent to 38,474.30 and Singapore's Straits Times Index eased 0.08 per cent to 3,788.77, while Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index soared 1.83 per cent to 19,219.78, South Korea’s Kospi climbed 0.31 per cent to 2,497.40, and China’s SSE Composite Index surged 2.54 per cent to 3,240.94.

Rakuten Trade Sdn Bhd equity research vice-president Thong Pak Leng meanwhile said investors are awaiting clarity on whether new tariffs will be introduced on Chinese exports after US President-elect Donald Trump takes office next week.

“On the domestic front, we remain cautious, however, the benchmark index appears near oversold territory, encouraging continued accumulation, but external factors and elevated global market volatility weigh on sentiment.

“Hence, we foresee the FBM KLCI to trend within the 1,570-1,600 range for the remainder of the week,” he told Bernama.

Among heavyweights, Maybank jumped 12 sen to RM10.20, while CIMB shed 13 sen to RM7.97, Public Bank fell five sen to RM4.40, Tenaga dropped eight sen to RM13.82, and IHH slipped two sen to RM7.08.

As for the active stocks, TWL Holdings, Velocity Capital and EA Holdings were flat at three sen, eight sen and half-a-sen respectively, MYEG slid one sen to 93.5 sen while Harvest Miracle added one sen to 19.5 sen.

On the broader index, the FBM Emas Index decreased 62.39 points to 12,116.97, the FBM Emas Shariah Index fell 57.33 points to 12,053.53, and the FBMT 100 Index declined 63.01 points to 11,801.64.

The FBM 70 Index dropped 77.53 points to 18,230.90 while the FBM ACE Index increased 14.55 points to 5,260.58.

The ACE Market volume narrowed to 473.57 million units worth RM154.59 million from 484.47 million units worth RM167.11 million yesterday.

Consumer products and services counters accounted for 209.06 million shares traded on the Main Market, industrial products and services (333.61 million), construction (111.73 million), technology (288.51 million), SPAC (nil), financial services (81.02 million), property (240.65 million), plantation (31.03 million), REITs (12.30 million), closed/fund (33,000), energy (76.83 million), healthcare (54.53 million), telecommunications and media (29.32 million), transportation and logistics (19.24 million), utilities (106.94 million), and business trusts (4,800).

特朗普考虑保罗·阿特金斯接任SEC主席,或推动加密货币监管转型

据彭博社报道,美国候任总统唐纳德·特朗普正在考虑由 保罗·阿特金斯 (Paul Atkins)接替即将卸任的证券交易委员会(SEC)主席 加里·根斯勒 (Gary Gensler)。阿特金斯以其支持数字资产的立场闻名,这一任命可能为SEC的加密货币监管政策带来重大转变。 事件概况 阿特金斯的背景 : 阿特金斯曾在乔治·W·布什政府期间担任SEC专员。他一直推动制定明确且平衡的加密货币法规,力求为金融科技创新提供支持。 行业经验 : 离开SEC后,阿特金斯领导了 Patomak Global Partners ,一家为主要金融公司提供咨询的机构。他主张简化监管流程以鼓励创新,同时确保市场完整性。 其他候选人 : 马克·乌耶达 (Mark Uyeda):现任SEC专员 希斯·塔伯特 (Heath Tarbert):前商品期货交易委员会(CFTC)主席 罗伯特·斯特宾斯 (Robert Stebbins):Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP合伙人 特朗普的亲加密货币立场 特朗普承诺终结根斯勒领导下的SEC“反加密货币运动”。根斯勒的任期因FTX崩盘等丑闻后的强力执法而备受争议,被批评为给行业带来了不确定性。 阿特金斯的潜在任命与特朗普的目标一致,即在保障市场完整性的同时,通过更加友好的监管政策推动数字资产的发展。 接下来会发生什么? SEC主席的任命预计将在未来几天内敲定。如果阿特金斯接任,这将表明SEC将采取更注重创新的监管方式,为加密货币行业带来更大的确定性和发展空间。

Capital A 股价下跌,因外汇驱动的第三季度业绩低于预期

Capital A Bhd 在周五早盘交易中股价下跌7%,至1.01令吉,市值降至46亿令吉。这是由于其2024财年第三季度业绩未达到大多数分析师预期,尽管受益于外汇收益提振。 2024财年第三季度亮点: 核心税后及少数股东权益后亏损 (Latmi):  1.434亿令吉,令2024财年前9个月的税后亏损达到1.195亿令吉。 业绩未达  香港联昌投资银行(HLIB)预计的7.549亿令吉的税后净利(Patmi),但与市场普遍预测的4.59亿令吉税后净利一致。 剔除例外项目 (EIs):  共计12亿令吉,主要由于15亿令吉的外汇收益,但被递延税务损失部分抵销。 环比表现: 核心Latmi从上一季度的5,760万令吉恶化至1.434亿令吉,主要受以下因素影响: 季节性收益率疲弱; 成本增加; ADE MRO(维修、保养及翻修)业务因6个新机库的启动成本造成亏损。 未来展望: 预计2024财年第四季度表现将有所改善,得益于: 更高的机队容量; 季节性需求和收益率的改善; 喷气燃料价格下降及美元贬值; 来自新ADE机库的运营贡献。 待决事项: 航空业务出售:  正等待法院批准出售给亚航长途(AirAsia X Bhd, KL:AAX),预计在2025财年第一季度完成。 PN17状态:  出售后仍维持,预计在2025财年上半年完成相关解决方案。 联昌投资银行(HLIB)建议: 维持“买入”评级,目标价为1.68令吉,估值基于航空业务为68亿令吉,非航空业务为21.5亿令吉。 尽管短期面临挑战,Capital A 的长期增长前景依然受到更强的季节性表现和战略举措的支持。
