Apex Securities expects a potential recovery to take place today over at the FBM KLCI, taking a cue from the positive developments on Wall Street last Friday as we approach the tabling of Budget 2025.

It added that lower liners may stay in consolidation mode due to a lack of fresh catalysts, while investors will watch US performance closely this week, as key economic data could signal interest rate movements by the Fed.

“The Middle East tension continues to escalate, keeping traders on edge. The ongoing corporate earnings releases in the US will be in focus.

“Sector-wise, we favour the plantation sector with crude palm oil (CPO) price advanced above RM4,300 per tonne,” Apex said.
