Market Daily Report: Bursa Malaysia Reverses Early Gains To End Lower Ahead Of US CPI Data

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 15 (Bernama) -- Bursa Malaysia reversed its early gains to close broadly lower, with over 900 stocks in the red, reflecting the continuous lack of confidence across the market.

The weaker performance was in sync with the downbeat regional market performance, weighed down by cautious sentiment ahead of the release of the US consumer price index (CPI) data later today.

At 5 pm, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) slipped 14.34 points, or 0.91 per cent, to 1,562.12 from Tuesday’s close of 1,576.46. 

The FBM KLCI has lost 40.29 points in the last three trading days.

The benchmark index opened 5.87 points higher at 1,582.33 and rose to an intraday high of 1,586.21 in the early session before succumbing to selling pressure to hit an intraday low of 1,558.60 in late trading.

Market breadth was broadly negative, with losers thumping gainers 964 to 193, while 419 counters were unchanged, 799 untraded and 10 others suspended.

Turnover trimmed to 3.40 billion units valued at RM3.08 billion against Tuesday’s 3.45 billion units valued at RM2.72 billion.

UOB Kay Hian Wealth Advisors head of investment research Mohd Sedek Jantan said historically, Malaysian investors have displayed a more conservative risk appetite compared to their foreign counterparts, often avoiding equity markets during periods of heightened uncertainty.

“With persistent concerns over strong US economic data delaying policy easing and the geopolitical risks associated with a potential (Donald) Trump 2.0 administration, domestic investors are likely to remain cautious until global economic and policy conditions stabilise,” he told Bernama.

He said recent speculation regarding the US Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security adds to this cautious sentiment, with reports suggesting that Asian semiconductor exporters may face stricter scrutiny and increased due diligence to prevent advanced chips from reaching Chinese customers like Huawei.

“If confirmed, these regulations would target the world’s largest semiconductor manufacturers, seeking to disrupt supply chains at the source.

“Although unverified, such developments have worsened sentiment, influencing investors’ risk assessments,” he added.

Regionally, Japan’s Nikkei 225 fell 0.08 per cent to 38,444.58, Singapore's Straits Times Index eased 0.45 per cent to 3,771.72, South Korea’s Kospi erased 0.02 per cent to 2,496.81, and China’s Shanghai Composite Index decreased 0.43 per cent to 3,227.12.

On the local bourse, heavyweights Maybank shed six sen to RM10.14, CIMB slipped 12 sen to RM7.85, and Tenaga sank 32 sen to RM13.50, while Public Bank was flat at RM4.40 and IHH increased two sen to RM7.10.

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。
