PSEi ends flat, weighed down by mining stocks
Posted on July 09, 2016
THE local stock market ended the Friday session flat, weighed down by mining stocks, renewed Brexit fears and anticipation of US jobs data later in the day.
The bellwether Philippine Stock Exchange index closed 0.23% or 18.06 points higher at 7,771.52. The broader all-shares index inched up 0.11% or 5.14 points to 4,713.90.
“Well, there’s the unemployment figures of the States but we’re still in a trading range and markets are rather flat in the US markets so we were not expecting much today,” Luis A. Limlingan, managing director of Regina Capital, said.
“Overnight, the US market had minimal movement. The US was down but intra-day foreign reserves hit a three-day high. We’re taking that as a good omen for investors,” he added.
Investors will keep a close eye on US non-farm payrolls figures for June for clues about the direction of Federal Reserve’s interest rate plans.
In a phone interview, Victor F. Felix, analyst at AB Capital Securities, Inc., said the day’s performance was “just average.”
“The momentum seen last week was disrupted by the holiday on Wednesday and there were more Brexit fears reignited… Performance today is flat. We saw Tuesday and Thursday where we ended in the red. So it seems investors are still looking for more positive indicators in the global space before they rally,” he said.
Mr. Felix added that the resignation of UK Independence Party leader, Nigel Farage may have been viewed as a risk, prompting investors to seek shelter in the Japanese yen and the US dollar.
On Friday, property was up 0.80% or 27.08 points to 3,418.88, while financials climbed 0.60% or 10.45 points to 1,765.15. Services rose 0.22% or 3.62 points to 1,647.62, while holding firms increased 0.12% or 9.05 points to 7,627.04.
However, mining declined 196.16 points or 1.7% to close at 11,333.17, while industrials lost 0.41% or 47.94 points to 11,750.38.
News that the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) suspended the operations of two mines in Zambales weighed on stocks of mining companies.
“I think that was a reaction on the suspension of some mines. And oil has weakened in the previous closing trading period, and energy companies were heavy hit,” said Mr. Limlingan.
Listed miner Benguet Corp. on Friday confirmed operations of subsidiary Benguetcorp Nickel Mines, Inc. (BNMI). in Sta. Cruz, Zambales were suspended by the DENR on July 7.
Shares in Benguet dropped 5.47% to close at P7.09 apiece, while other mining firms trended lower, such as Philex Mining Corp. (down 1.46%), Semirara Mining and Power Corp. (down 1.69%), Nickel Asia Corp. (down 2.47%), Global Ferronickel Holdings, Inc. (down 1.11%) and Lepanto Consolidated Mining Company (down 2.75%).
“A lot of people are a bit wary now on the mining space,” Mr. Felix said, citing the recent pronouncements of Environment Secretary Regina Paz L. Lopez.
Ms. Lopez was quoted by Reuters as saying there would be a ban on fresh mining exploration while the DENR is conducting a review of all existing mines in the country.
Advancers beat decliners, 108 and 86, while 40 remain unchanged.
Value turnover reached P11.32 billion, higher than Thursday’s P8.69 billion.
Foreigners turned net buyers with cash flows coming in at P2.20 billion, a turnaround from the P726.64 million selling on Thursday. — Janina C. Lim
