KUALA LUMPUR: Hwang DBS Vickers Research said the Malaysian stock market's performance was surprisingly resilient on Monday, March 21 with gainers beating losers by a ratio of almost three-to-one.
'After a 5.0-point increase, the benchmark FBM KLCI will probably extend its recovery momentum today as it makes its way towards the immediate resistance line of 1,530,' it said on Tuesday.
Giving a lift to the overall market sentiment is an overnight jump on Wall Street. Leading U.S. equity indices climbed between 1.5% and 1.8% at the closing bell following a news report saying that the threat of a nuclear meltdown in Japan has eased.
Among the counters that could attract trading interest today include AMMB after ANZ said it has intention to raise its existing interest (of 24%) to a controlling stake.
Nevertheless, in a separate news article, major shareholder Tan Sri Azman Hashim mentioned he has no plans to sell his shares.
Also in focus would be Kulim, in response to a media report saying that the Malay Chamber is prepared to buy over the 53% stake in Kulim held by Johor Corp.
Benalec could see trading interest after it secured a reclamation contract in Selangor worth RM37m.
