The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) Index closed at 1,202.16 on Monday, up 7.21 points or 0.60 per cent. The volume of total transactions was Bt40.73 billion with an index high of 1,202.55 and a low of 1,191.44.
In the morning session, an analyst at Krungsri Securities said he expected the day’s index to fall to between 1,185 and 1,205 owing to European countries imposing a second lockdown in response to rising Covid-19 cases, resulting in negative sentiment for the global economy.
“Also, mass sell-offs in stocks to reduce risks from the US presidential election tomorrow will pressure the index,” he said, adding that the index should rebound from mass buy-ups in shares whose third-quarter performance is expected to improve.
The top 10 stocks with the highest trade value today were STA, CPALL, STARK, AOT, STGT, SCGP, BANPU, PTT, KBANK and MINT.
As of 4.30pm, the price of oil dropped by US$0.77 or 2.15 per cent to $35.02 per barrel, while gold rose by $6.20 or 0.33 per cent, to $1,886.10 per ounce.
