Index climbs further ahead of PHL growth data
THE PHILIPPINE Stock Exchange index (PSEi) closed slightly higher on Wednesday as the market continued to consolidate ahead of the release of data on the country’s economic performance for the first quarter.
The benchmark index gained 9.46 points or 0.12% to close at 7,534.30, still way above the lows reached during the days leading to the elections. The all-shares index rose by 1.34 points or 0.03% to end at 4,476.33.
“It’s trading within the ranges,” said Lexter L. Azurin, head of research at Unicapital Securities, Inc., about the mart’s performance.
“Since the market has rallied in the past few days, we’re seeing a little bit of profit taking… so basically it’s trying to build a base around these levels,” he added.
He said investors had already priced in the outcome of the elections even as the country’s incoming president Rodrigo R. Duterte came out with more details about his economic plans and new names to man key government offices, which analysts received with mixed sentiments.
“Investors would be focused more on the economic fundamentals of the country as well as whether listed companies are on track to beat their estimates,” he said.
He said he expected a “windfall” for the gross domestic product (GDP) as the quarter was also the run-up period for the May 9 national elections, giving rise to poll-related consumer spending that could boost the local economy.
“Expectations for the first quarter is at least 6.6% [GDP growth]… that’s basically consensus estimate,” Mr. Azurin said.
“If we see better-than-expected first-quarter results, this should definitely give confidence back in the market and it would likely resume its rally,” he said. “If the figure comes out weaker than expected, then we might expect some disappointment.”
Yesterday, local counters closed with mixed results, with those that finished higher registering modest gains.
The mining and oil counter was the biggest gainer at 331.44 or 2.91% to 11,701.38; financials rose by 15.02 points or 0.89% to 1,697.88; property went up 15.78 points or 0.49% to 3,190.50; and holding firms advanced by 2.85 points or 0.03% to 7,586.21.
In contrast, services declined by 3.49 points or 0.23% to 1,482.31 while industrials shed 7.27 points or 0.06% to 11,947.25.
Value turnover was almost flat at P9.96 billion yesterday after 6.83 billion shares changed hands, from the previous day’s P9.97 billion.
Advancers narrowly outnumbered decliners, 102 against 101, while 38 issues were unchanged.
Foreign investors sold more than they bought and finished the session with net sales of P4.96 million worth of stocks, lower than the previous day’s sales of P20.86 million.
Ayala Land, Inc., Security Bank Corp., BDO Unibank, Inc. and Jollibee Foods Corp. were the most active stocks.
