PSEi continues retreat ahead of Yellen speech

STOCKS RETREATED for the second session in a row as caution prevailed ahead of Federal Reserve Chairperson Janet Yellen’s speech that may provide some clarity on the outlook for US interest rates this year.

The bellwether Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) dropped 60.12 points or 0.82% to close at 7,274.40, near the session’s low.

The broader all-shares index declined 15.73 points or 0.37% to 4,202.10.

“Investors were risk off before Janet Yellen’s speech tonight, as they await for hints on whether the Fed will hike interest rates in the next policy meeting next month,” Joylin F. Telagen, equity analyst at IB Gimenez Securities, said in a mobile phone message.

Ms. Yellen is scheduled to deliver a speech before the Economic Club of New York at a time when investors are guessing the direction of interest rates after some Fed officials issued hawkish comments that contradicted the Fed chair’s dovish statement early this month.

“Expectations that Monday’s economic data from the US will support optimism were unmet after it showed consumer spending was soft, leading first-quarter gross domestic product estimates to be adjusted lower,” Justino B. Calaycay, Jr., head of marketing and research at A&A Securities, Inc., said in a client note.

Consumer spending in the US, which make up two-thirds of economic activity, edged up by only 0.1% in February and the January figure was revised down to 0.1% from the 0.5% growth previously reported.

The weak US consumer spending data fanned expectations that the Fed may delay raising borrowing costs over the coming months.

Holding firms fell 81.88 points or 1.13% to 7,135.07; financials slid 12.46 points or 0.76% to 1,616.04; property shed 21.43 points or 0.72% to 2,948.04; and industrial slipped 15.07 points or 0.12% to 11,739.92.

Defying the downtrend were mining and oil, which shot up 105.92 points or 0.96% to 11,138.37, and services, which added 1.45 points or 0.09% to 1,548.29.

Value turnover remained below the average, but improved to P5.52 billion after 1.02 billion shares changed hands, from Monday’s P5.11 billion.

Market breadth was positive, as gainers dominated losers, 115 to 97, while 29 issues ended flat.

Net foreign selling accelerated to P399.72 million yesterday from P299.62 million in the prior session.

Despite the recovery, backdrop that led to the markets’ worst start in years has remained largely the same, Mr. Calaycay said.

“The uncertainties over the efficacy of central banks’ dovish stance, the Fed’s eventual rate decision, the Chinese, Japanese and European economies, oil and commodity prices and lately, the addition of terrorism will continue to hang like Damocles’ sword above the collective heads of market investors,” he said.
