Nonetheless, a significant local positive catalyst will be key to lift the market from the current precautionary phase. Immediate support for the index remains at the 100-day moving average level now at 1,761, which must hold to prevent further correction to 1,729, a key support level in April. Crucial uptrend support will be from 200-day moving average at 1,712. Immediate resistance is raised to 1,782, which is the 76.4%FR of the April 2015 high of 1,867 to the Aug 2015 low of 1,503, followed by the recent peak of 1,796. 1,774.53 12,619.87 17,216.16 1,774.50 2.63 14.72 6.28 4.50 0.15 0.12 0.04 0.25 8.09 10.06 16.99 8.50 Sector-wise, the lower liners and small caps space should stay in lowvolume consolidation mode given the weak trading momentum, while blue chips continue to congest at current levels due to the cautious market undertone. 22,092.81 6,351.56 7,511.71 19,952.33 2,395.45 27,562.68 3,326.52 1,578.26 5,777.48 3,262.08 1,858.49 5,720.58 66.71 11.22 36.94 -76.93 8.60 31.67 -16.40 0.01 -3.09 -10.85 -10.72 -14.54 0.30 0.18 0.49 -0.38 0.36 0.12 -0.49 0.00 -0.05 -0.33 -0.57 -0.25 11.79 17.99 5.16 4.38 18.21 25.28 15.47 2.29 9.08 5.11 -5.62 0.97 News Bites Top 10 KLCI Movers Based on Mkt Cap.
