Daily Market Report - 10 November 2025
  • Wall Street ended mixed as selling on AI-related stocks continues.
  • Nonetheless, all 3 major indices managed to close off their respective day’s low amid a new proposal to end the prevailing US government shutdown.
  • Meanwhile, the US 10-year yield edged marginally higher at 4.093%.
  • Over in Hong Kong, the HSI slipped to hover around the 26,200 level over China’s weak exports data and persistent profit taking on AI-related counters.
  • Back home, the FBM KLCI was flat attributed to late buying support as benchmark index remains stuck in a consolidation phase.
  • As market sentiment remains cautious, we believe the ongoing strength of the MYR should entice some inflows of funds back into the domestic market.
  • For today, we anticipate the index to hover between the 1,620-1,630 range.
Daily Market Report - 7 November 2025
  • Wall Street tumbled as concerns over a valuation bubble of AI-related stocks intensified.
  • Sentiment was further worsened by the state of the labour market as October saw a significant number of layoffs.
  • Meanwhile, the US 10-year yield eased to 4.085%.
  • As for Hong Kong, the HSI climbed to almost the 26,500 level attributed to emergence of bargain hunters.
  • Concerns over the lofty valuations seems to be overdone amongst Asian AI-related stocks as most are trading at decent levels unlike their US counterparts.
  • Back home, the FBM KLCI declined slightly to below the 1,620 mark notwithstanding a strong morning session, possibly due to foreign selling again.
  • This is despite BNM maintaining the OPR propping the MYR higher currently at 4.18 against the greenback.
  • Meanwhile, YTL Power’s success in its AU$284m tax dispute should be good news for the group.
  • In view of this, we believe buying activities should return hence expect the index to trend within the 1,620-1,630 range today.
