Lack of good news drags bourse deeper into red

LOCAL EQUITIES plunged to a fresh near two-year low yesterday, as investors succumbed further to selling pressure triggered by persistent concerns about the global economy.

The 30-company Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) sank 175.33 points or 2.80% to end at the session’s low of 6,084.28 — the lowest since Feb. 10, 2014 when it closed at 6,042.25 — while the all-shares index retreated by 86.04 points or 2.38% to finish 3,519.58.

“The poor performance of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and absence of positive market leads continue to pressure investors to dump their shares. Negative news and views about China, oil prices and global growth are still the main culprit for the jitters,” Astro C. del Castillo, managing director at First Grade Finance, Inc., said in a mobile phone message, while Justino B. Calaycay, Jr., analyst at Philstocks Financial, Inc., said in a research note: “Thoughts revolve around the health of the global economy, central banks’ reaction and eventual action, geopolitical tensions, challenges to political leadership, terrorism and commodity prices — none of which are providing a positive spin.”

NAGGING CONCERNS
US stocks capped an early slide, but still ended at levels last seen in 2014, as investor sentiment continues to be hurt by collapsing oil prices and fears of a slowdown in China — the same concerns that caused wild gyrations across global markets this year.

WAITING AT THE SIDELINES
“As the market approaches, the 6,000 mark and as talks abound of a higher probability of further drops, investors are quite expectedly moving to or staying at the sidelines,” Mr. Calaycay said.

All six sectoral indices sank deep in the negative territory, with holding firms sustaining the biggest losses at 235.65 points or 3.98% to end 5,682.33.

Similarly, property dropped 70.21 points or 2.87% to close 2,369.79; mining and oil slumped 221.65 points or 2.5% to 8,632.08; industrial lost 219.0 points or 2.13% to 10,022.85; financials shed 21.09 points or 1.44% to 1,437.39; and services slid 15.71 points or 1.13% to finish 1,365.98.

Value turnover picked up to P7.4 billion after 867.90 million shares changed hands, from Wednesday’s P5.33 billion.

Four stocks retreated for every issue that advanced, while 40 issues were flat.

Foreign selling grew nearly eightfold to P962.36 million from P125.30 million the prior session.

The PSEi is poised to test key support at the 6,000 mark, with the local market “expected to remain in dire straits,” First Grade Finance’s Mr. del Castillo said.

“Prudence dictates we keep to the sidelines until the dust settles,” Philstocks’ Mr. Calaycay said.

“We may miss some opportunities of a rebound, but taking stock of the risks is our top priority at this time.”
