Wall Street retreated as traders were sidelined after a record breaking run amid the ongoing rally within the AI frenzy. Interests are shifted to the Federal Reserve updates on its policy over the next 2 days to gauge the outlook for interest rates. As such, the DJI Average declined by 97 points while the Nasdaq fell 67 points as the US 10-year yield edged higher at 4.217%. In Hong Kong, the HSI ended off the day’s low as focus moved to China’s annual legislative session today to determine the government budgets to tackle the sluggish Chinese economy. At home, the FBM KLCI closed above water attributed to last minute buying activities after a solid performance during the morning session. We see market undertone has turned cautious with investors looking for fresh leads hence expect the index to hover within the 1,545-1,555 range today as daily volume shrunk to the 3bn shares level.
