Market rebound seen for H2


As the first half of the year draws to a close, investors are wondering what is in store for stocks on Bursa Malaysia after the strong rally that took the KLCI slightly beyond the 900-point level dissipated. 

High oil prices, rising interest rates and a cooling of China's roaring economy were the culprits that dampened sentiment in the second quarter. The question is: will they continue to so in the second half year? 

StarBiz assistant news editor Jagdev Singh Sidhu and senior writer Kathy Fong sat down with AmResearch executive director Gan Kim Khoon, Singular Asset Management Sdn Bhd managing director Teoh Kok Lin, Kenanga Investment Management Sdn Bhd director/fund manager Johan Tazrin Hamid Ngo, OSK Research general manager Pankaj Kumar and TA Securities head of research C.K Ngu to get their views on the stock market and outlook for the second half of the year.
