The KLCI ended 2.5 points down to 1,775.65, off an early high of 1,779.94 and low of 1,770.22, as losers beat gainers 473 to 417 on total turnover of 3.45bn shares worth RM2.88bn. Following the overnight US correction, blue chips will be in correction mode amid reduced risk appetite following renewed political uncertainty in the US, as concerns intensify the US President might have committed an impeachable offense in relation to the recent firing of the FBI Director. Immediate uptrend supports for the index remain at the rising 30 and 50day moving average levels, now at 1,756 and 1,749, with better support from the lower Bollinger band at 1,740. Immediate upside hurdle for the benchmark stays at Tuesday's new two-year high of 1,787, followed by the 1,800 psychological level and 18 May 2015 high of 1,823. Affin Holdings could fall on profit-taking correction due to hook down momentum indicators, with better chart supports from the 100-day ma (RM2.66) and 50%FR (RM2.54). Key resistance level is at the peak of 28/ 04/15 (RM3.00), matching the upper Bollinger band. Further rise on Alliance Financials Group should meet stronger profit-taking resistance towards the peak of 11/05/17 (RM4.49) and upper Bollinger band (RM4.57), while support rests at the mid Bollinger band (RM4.22), reinforced by the 100-day ma (RM3.96). • 20,606.93 6,011.24 7,503.47 19,814.88 2,293.08 25,293.63 3,224.10 1,548.29 5,615.49 3,104.44 1,867.68 5,786.03 Off Market NETX NETX-WB HUBLINE SGB SAMCHEM PTRANS KLCC ECONBHD VERSATL STERPRO -2.50 -9.35 -29.64 -1.50 Value/ Volume 1.19 0.14 0.15 0.29 1.33 0.83 0.48 TA Research e-mail : taresearch@ta.com.my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ (RM) 0.08 0.04 0.06 0.73 0.85 0.28 7.81 2.35 1.30 0.21 Exchange Rate USD/MYR 4.3238 0.0016 USD/JPY 112.43 -1.2100 EUR/USD 1.111 0.0056 -372.82 -158.63 -18.56 -104.94 -2.25 -42.31 -3.61 1.94 -31.51 -8.52 2.42 -64.49 -1.78 -2.57 -0.25 -0.53 -0.10 -0.17 -0.11 0.13 -0.56 -0.27 0.13 -1.10 4.27 11.67 5.05 3.66 13.16 14.97 11.92 0.35 6.02 0.03 -5.15 2.12 • • • • • Top 10 KLCI Movers Based on Mkt Cap. • Counter • Mkt Cap.
