“The fundamentals for Malaysia are improving with commodity prices stabilising and corporate earnings recovering. The weaker ringgit should attract foreign interest to local equities as the risk-reward ratio looks more favourable,” says Rudie Chan, Chief Investments Officer.
We are seeing more buying opportunities for equities and bonds compared with a year ago. Our appetite for equities has increased. But as always, with our bottom-up approach, we continue to be on the lookout for attractively valued stocks with good long-term growth potential.” says Chan.
