Market Daily Report: Bursa Malaysia Ends Higher On Bargain Hunting Despite Lingering US Tariff Uncertainty

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 21 (Bernama) -- Bursa Malaysia closed higher today as bargain hunting persisted, despite ongoing uncertainty surrounding US President Donald Trump's tariff policies.

At 5 pm, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) rose 8.12 points, or 0.52 per cent, to 1,580.46, anchored mainly by industrial products and services, and utility sectors.

The benchmark index opened 2.57 points higher at 1,574.91 from Monday’s close of 1,572.34.

Market breadth remained positive, with gainers outpacing losers 661 to 378 while 505 counters were unchanged, 825 untraded, and nine suspended.

Turnover expanded to 3.42 billion units valued at RM2.61 billion from Monday’s 2.95 billion units valued at RM2.45 billion.

Rakuten Trade Sdn Bhd equity research vice-president Thong Pak Leng said the market recovery continued amid cheap valuations after last week’s sharp losses.

On top of that, he said Trump's instruction to examine global trade imbalances offers some hope of milder tariffs from his administration.

However, he noted that it is too early to predict Trump’s next move.

On his first day in office, Trump ordered his administration to address unfair trade practices globally and ensure Beijing’s adherence to a prior trade agreement, while refraining from introducing new tariffs, particularly on China. 

UOB Kay Hian Wealth Advisors Sdn Bhd head of investment research Mohd Sedek Jantan views this move positively, saying this more measured tone has boosted investor confidence as reflected in higher trade volume recorded today.  

This sentiment is further reinforced by an improved outlook for China, whose 2024 economic growth met the government’s target of 5.0 per cent, and its December retail sales data showed encouraging signs of recovery.

“As Malaysia is one of China’s key trading partners, the improved economic conditions in China are expected to support Malaysian corporate earnings,” he noted.

Among sector indices, property and industrial products emerged as the top performers.

“Market sentiment has stabilised compared to last week, with the technology sector continuing its steady recovery since last Wednesday,” he added.

On the local bourse, Press Metal led gainers among heavyweights, increasing 20 sen to RM5.18, YTL Corp was 14 sen firmer at RM2.37, Sunway gained 23 sen to RM4.46, Public Bank put on six sen to RM4.37, and YTL Power was 12 sen higher at RM4.02.

  Of the active stocks, Harvest Miracle Capital perked up half-a-sen to 17 sen, CBH Engineering advanced 5.0 sen to 36.5 sen, TWL Holdings was flat at 2.5 sen, Mah Sing expanded 11 sen to RM1.49, and Swift Energy Technology rose 2.5 sen to 38 sen.

On the broader market, the FBM Emas Index jumped 75.53 points to 12,141.36, the FBM Emas Shariah Index surged 91.88 points to 12,056.06, the FBMT 100 Index leapt 73.40 points to 11,821.25, the FBM 70 Index soared 160.18 points to 18,222.67, and the FBM ACE Index garnered 51.71 points to 5,246.32.

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。
