Market Pulse - 1Nov22 - Closing Up Positively In October

The FBM KLCI ended positively in tandem with the regional markets, thanks to the telecommunication sector as well as the plantation heavyweights. However, the profit taking activities on Wall Street after a significant rally may cap the upside potential on the local front. We expect the investors may take a cautious stance ahead of the important FOMC meeting that will conclude on the 2-Nov (US time). Meanwhile, traders may focus on GE15 theme and position within GLC-linked companies.
