  • 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.

  • Traders are beginning to realise that valuations for AI related stocks are seriously stretched, hence expecting a pullback.
  • Meanwhile, the US 10-year yield eased marginally to 4.083%.

  • Back home, the FBM KLCI ended flat despite a solid morning session as overall sentiment became nervy amid a weak regional performance.
  • Trading remains lacklustre as illustrated by the daily volume which is still stuck within the 3.0-3.5bn shares.

Daily Market Report - 4 November 2025
  • Wall Street closed mixed as AI related stocks continue to prosper with the Nasdaq touching another record high.
  • However, outside the AI theme most stocks ended in the red. Meanwhile, the US 10-year yield edged higher at 4.108%.
  • Over in Hong Kong, the HSI rebounded to above the 26,000 level following recent trade negotiations that seems to soothe the overall investment climate and eased the tension between the two superpowers.
  • Back home, the FBM KLCI surprisingly surged beyond the 1,620 mark underpinned by solid accumulation of blue chips throughout yesterday’s session.
  • While we expect the local institutions to be the main buyers, we also suspect some foreign funds may also have been net buyers following a net foreign outflow of RM19bn year to date.
  • In view of this, we hope that the foreign funds will stay a tad longer thus anticipating the index to trend between the 1,620-1,630 range today.
