  • Wall Street staged a sharp rally boosted by tech stocks after Trump called off the scheduled strikes on Iran and said that a resolution will be signed over the few days.
  • As a result, crude oil prices dipped with the Brent crude now at USD90/barrel while the US 10-year yield eased to 4.459%.
  • Over in Hong Kong, the HSI slid to a YTD low, nearing the 24,000 level as selling pressure persisted.
  • Mounting fears in the middle east coupled with the leaking AI-related bubble had traders maintaining their risk-off mode.
  • Back home, the FBM KLCI gyrated within a narrow range to end flat. We noticed foreign funds have been net sellers over the past few days and is not
    relenting.
  • Nonetheless, we remain adamant that the local bourse is still well supported at prevailing levels. Buoyed by the sharp recovery on Wall Street, we
    anticipate the index to trend between the 1,675-1,695 range today.

Daily Market Report - 11 June 2026
  • Wall Street closed sharply lower following Trump’s statement that Iran is taking long to negotiate and is threatening more action.
  • In addition, the sell-off on tech stocks continued. Meanwhile May’s CPI excluding food and energy came in lighter than expected but the
    headline figure, which include all prices, came in above 4% or a 3-year high. As such, the US 10-year yield edged higher at 4.554%.
  • As for Hong Kong, the HSI continues to decline as confidence remains suppressed by the persistent trashing of AI-related stocks coupled with the intensifying tension between the US and Iran over in the middle east.
  • On the home front, the FBM KLCI staged a minor recovery as it ended near the 1,680 mark in what has been a choppy week. As mentioned, we reckon the
    local bourse is rather well supported at prevailing levels thus may see some accumulation of stocks. As such, we expect the index to hover within the 1,675-1685 range today.
