Director of Securities Analysis at AIRA Securities Mr. Narongdet Chanthaphaisarn said the Thai stock market index was down today but not by much. Both positive and negative movements are regionally similar. There are no new factors to support. Investors lowered their expectations after the Federal Reserve (Fed) began cutting interest rates this month. The uncertainty began in June. Chairman of Central Bank Mr. Jerome Powell reiterated his view that the Fed will definitely cut interest rates this year. But the US economy is still strong. The market is still unsure how many times the central bank will cut interest rates this year.
“Our local market still faces continued selling pressure from banks. In response to concerns, the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) will cut interest rates next week. However, there is still buying power in the energy sector to support the market.”
As for tomorrow's trend of the Thai stock market, the market is expected to swing sideways. But as the Songkran festival approaches, the purchasing power decreases.
“Ahead of the release of key US economic data next week, foreign investors will sell to reduce risk. With a support frame of 1,370 points and a resistance level of 1,385 points.” Mr. Narongthej concluded.
