PHL shares slide further as investors sell on news
SHARES finished lower on Thursday as the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate came out broadly in line with early expectations, leaving investors without much impetus to buy stocks.
“It was a classic case of selling on news as GDP was well within median consensus estimates of 6.9%,” said Luis A. Limlingan, business development head at Regina Capital Development Corp.
Yesterday, the Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) shed 106.97 points or 1.42% to close at 7,427.33, while the broader all-shares index lost 52.56 points or 1.17% to end at 4,423.77.
This came after the Philippine Statistics Authority released first-quarter GDP data showing the country’s economic growth at 6.9%, the fastest pace seen since the second quarter of 2013.
Services was the main driver as it grew by 7.9% from 5.5% a year ago, while industry rose by 8.7% from 5.3% previously.
“The sequential strength of our growth figures through improved government spending undermined the fact that agriculture remains unattended still,” Mr. Limlingan said.
The agriculture sector dropped by 4.4% to post its fourth consecutive quarterly decline since the second quarter of 2015, from a growth of 1% a year ago.
“The protracted effects of El Niño on agricultural production is being masked in the inflation prints as rice prices have remained stable due to preemptive rice importation by the National Food Authority,” Mr. Limlingan said.
All counters finished lower, with the mining and oil sector recording the biggest drop at 258.92 points or 2.21% to 11,442.46. Property followed as it shed 57.51 points or 1.8% to 3,132.99. Holding firms retreated by 96.23 points or 1.27% to 7,489.98. Industrials gave up 146.32 points or 1.22% to end at 11,800.93. Financials also dropped by 14.73 points or 0.87% to 1,683.15 while services, the economy’s main driver, eased by 11.72 points or 0.79% to 1,470.59.
Decliners at 127 greatly outnumbered advancers at 66 yesterday, while 52 issues were unchanged.
“Internationally, Federal Reserve meeting minutes signaled a more likely interest rate hike in June. Fed funds futures, based on the CME Group’s FedWatch tool used to gauge the probability of rate hikes, moved to price in a 34% chance of a June hike from 19% in morning trading,” Mr. Limlingan said.
Fed officials felt the US economy could be ready for another interest rate increase in June, according to the minutes from the central bank’s April policy meeting released on Wednesday.
Most participants in the policy-setting committee’s April 26-27 meeting said they wanted to see signs that economic growth was picking up in the second quarter and that employment and inflation were firming, the minutes showed.
“Then it likely would be appropriate for the committee to increase the target range for the federal funds rate in June,” according to the minutes. — Victor V. Saulon with Reuters
