Stocks plunge as markets eye Fed policy meeting
Posted on December 13, 2016
STOCKS slumped to start the week ahead of the US Federal Reserve meeting, where policy makers are almost certain to raise interest rates.
After regaining its hold of the 7,000 level last week, the local bellwether Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) dropped 2.47% or 174.27 points on Monday to close at 6,868.89. The PSEi is again in the red for the year or from its end-2015 close of 6,952.08.
The all-shares index fell 1.58% or 67.00 points to 4,162.39 points.
“It’s really the anticipation of the rate hike,” said Research Head at Unicapital Securities, Inc., Lexter A. Azurin by phone.
The Fed’s policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee is scheduled to meet on Dec. 13-14. Investors expect the US central bank to hike interest rates for the first time in a year.
Fed Chair Janet Yellen is set to speak after the meeting to elaborate on the economic outlook and policy statement.
Mr. Azurin added that the expected monetary policy tightening “removed the overhang in the market with the rate hike in the US long overdue already.”
The analyst said the Fed hike adds to the negative sentiment, with high valuations following the lackluster financial performance of many local companies already plaguing market.
“The uncertainty over the meeting is how many basis points [the hike will be]… It will also surprise if they don’t raise interest rates,” Victor F. Felix, equity analyst at AB Capital Securities, Inc. said over the phone.
Most subindices were in the red. Services plummeted 2.71% or 35.61 points to 1,277.57; property plunged 2.49% or 79.42 points to 3,100.01; financials went down 2.49% or 42.66 points to 1,665.86; industrials declined 1.90% or 211.65 points to 10,883.05; and holding firms slid 1.86% or 132.24 points down to 6,978.75.
Only mining and oil sub-sector ended in the green, up 0.17% or 20.40 points to 12,034.02 following the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries’ decision to slash production next year, which drove up crude prices in the global market.
Value turnover stood at P6.27 billion, lower than Friday’s P7.16 billion as 2.65 billion shares changed hands.
Losers outnumbered winners, 108 to 82, while 40 issues were unchanged.
Foreigners continued to dump their stocks, with net outflows recorded at P441.05 million, lower than Friday’s P942.42 million
Mr. Felix said investors are expected to trade more cautiously as the Fed meeting gets under way.
The PSEi may trade within the 6,700-7,000 levels today as markets await the result of the Fed’s policy review, Unicapital’s Mr. Azurin added.
Other Southeast Asian stock markets fell on Monday as investors were risk-averse ahead of a widely expected rate hike by the Fed. The possibility of a rate hike has been almost fully priced in by markets, and the focus would be now on whether the US central bank hints of further monetary tightening in 2017. — J.C.
