Malaysia was the only beneficiary of inflows have also attracted the comeback of foreign funds and also, foreign participation remained robust.


Malaysia: Foreign inflows into stocks listed on Bursa Malaysia took a breather last week but marked its fourth week of inflows, with net amount acquired amounted to RM24.6 million, said MIDF Research.
The foreign inflows last week marked the longest streak since the week ended December 29, 2017 to February 2, 2018.
MIDF said it was a modest start to the week as foreign investors bought RM35.9 million net of local equities on Monday. However, panic conquered markets on Tuesday fueled by worries of increasing US Treasury yields could prompt more outflows from emerging markets.
As a consequence, global funds withdrew RM191.4 million net of equities on Tuesday, the highest since March 28.
MIDF said the FBMKLCI followed suit to decline the most in two weeks by 0.8 per cent on the same day.
It said although concerns on rising US Treasury yields continue to linger, attrition on Bursa Malaysia gradually receded thereafter until RM9.2 million net on Thursday, buoyed by stable crude oil prices.
MIDF said global investors returned strongly to Malaysia on Friday, snapping up RM277.3 million net while the FBMKLCI was back above 1,860 points after two days remaining below that level.
“Among the four Asean exchanges we track, Malaysia was the only beneficiary of inflows that day. We opine that investors took cue from the positive vibes of the meeting between the two Koreas which also attracted the comeback of foreign funds into North Asia, namely South Korea and Taiwan,” it said.
MIDF said with only one-trading day left, April is set to be the first month of inflows since January 2018 as the month-to-date figure shows an inflow of RM1.26 billion net, bringing the year-to-date inflow of RM3.46 million net.
MIDF said foreign participation remained robust as the average daily trade value (ADTV) stood above the RM1 billion level for the 16th week this year.
The retail market meanwhile took a hit as its Average Daily Trading Volume (ADTV) reached the lowest in 10 weeks at RM772.8 million.
During the week, Genting Malaysia Bhd registered the highest net money inflow of RM27.42 million, followed by Tenaga Nasional Bhd at RM9.55 million and British American Tobacco Bhd at RM9.48 million.

Ringgit appeal while risk sentiment remained fragile & prospects of trade and tariff; Asia continued lower against the US dollar.


Malaysia: The ringgit opened lower against the US dollar today as the greenback received some boost following the launch of military strikes on Syria over the weekend.
At 9.02 am, the ringgit was quoted at 3.8800/8850 compared with Friday’s close of 3.8785/8815.
The US and European allies launched airstrikes against Syrian research, storage and military targets in the early hours of Saturday morning to punish the Bashar al-Assad regime for a suspected chemical weapons attack.
Head of trading in Asia-Pacific at OANDA Stephen Innes said while risk sentiment remained fragile and the prospects of trade and tariff war reconciliation improving, Asia continued to trade in a disorderly fashion.
“Much of the ringgit appeal comes from its undervalued call, and this should continue to gain interest among investors.
“But with Bank Negara likely to stay neutral the remainder of the year in the wake of tepid inflation readings, it will be up to the US dollar to do the heavy lifting for the ringgit reach the 3.80 level,” he said.
Innes said inflows ahead of the 14th general election remained tepid, hence, the local note should remain confined to the upper end of its recent trading ranges.
The ringgit was traded mostly lower against a basket of major currencies, except with the British pound, whereby it rose to 5.5337/5412 from 5.5393/5451.
It eased against the Singapore dollar to 2.9584/9625 from 2.9573/9603 and depreciated against the yen to 3.6103/6160 from 3.6042/6080.
The ringgit declined against euro to 4.7875/7945 from 4.7837/7878 previously.
