Malaysia's bourse to trade 'sideways'

The KLCI closed at another record-high at the start of the week, says OCBC Treasury Research.

OCBC Treasury Research noted:

The KLCI closed at another record-high at the start of the week, driven by blue chips and finance stocks, as investors continued to cling on hopes of further stimulus to be implemented by global central banks.

As it is, further upside is not to be ruled out in the short-term but we have yet to see a fundamental shift in global risk appetite that could potentially make the run prevalent at this juncture.

Risk is that any negative headline news would cause a disappointment in the market. Look for the local bourse to trade sideways in the meantime.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
