Bursa Malaysia Retreats To Open Lower

KUALA LUMPUR, July 7 (Bernama) -- Bursa Malaysia retreated to open lower on Monday, following a negative overnight performance on Wall Street, with the July 9 reciprocal tariffs deadline approaching. At 9.10 am, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) declined 13.66 points, or 0.88 per cent, to 1,536.53 from last Friday's close of 1,550.19. The benchmark index had earlier opened 5.45 points lower at 1,544.74. Market breadth was negative, with 436 decliners thumping 63 gainers. A total of 214 counters were unchanged, 1,691 untraded and 19 suspended. Turnover stood at 276.83 million shares worth RM189.99 million. Malacca Securities Sdn Bhd expect the local bourse to start the week on a cautious note with Wall Street's negative index futures and the July 9 tariff deadline looming, coupled with US plans to restrict AI chip shipments to Malaysia and Thailand. 'Nevertheless, the return of foreign funds and the FBM KLCI's undervaluation may cushion the downside risk for now, supported by the data centre theme, domestic-driven plays and anticipation of major infrastructure projects rollout. 'We remain bullish on the construction and utility sectors, while real estate investment trust (REIT) counters continue to benefit should Bank Negara Malaysia lower the overnight policy rate (OPR) in the upcoming monetary policy committee meeting,' it said in a note. Among the heavyweights, Maybank fell one sen to RM9.73, Public Bank and Tenaga Nasional decreased six sen each to RM4.32 and RM14, respectively. CIMB and IHH Healthcare dropped three sen to RM6.74 and RM6.72, respectively.

Five-year shield for CRC players

THE government has extended anti-dumping duties on cold rolled coils (CRCs) of iron or non-alloy steel from China and Japan for five more years in a move to protect its domestic steel industry from unfair foreign competition. The extension, from June 23, 2025, to June 22, 2030, is seen as a welcomed move as it will continue to be a buffer for local manufacturers whose margins have been squeezed by a flood of cheaper imports in recent years.

Impact analysis as tariff deadline looms

That is the last day of the 90-day reprieve Trump granted the world before implementing arbitrary tariffs. Billed as RM9.73 for the 1st month then RM13.90 thereafters.
