MSM ‐ Market Watch Source: Bloomberg, GBCM Research Market Outlook – Beginning of Summer to impact volumes, MSCI FM and MSM30 Index revision activity may support… During the previous trading session, we saw mixed closing among the regional markets with underperformance seen in UAE (ADX) and Qatar mainly on the outflows related to MSCI changes. Oman saw foreign buying interest in stocks which are added to MSCI FM index which lead to the market gaining 0.4% for the day. For the month of May 2017, all the regional markets ended on a negative note on relatively low market participation. We anticipate the local and the GCC equities to open see mixed opening for the first trading day of the month and to see further activity related to MSCI rebalancing. The new MSCI Index revision would be effective from today. In Oman, we see activity in stocks like Bank Muscat, OTEL, Ooredoo, Bank Sohar, Bank Nizwa, HSBC Oman and Phoenix Power.
