The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) Index closed at 1,476.13 on Monday, down 6.54 points or 0.44 per cent. Total transactions amounted to Bt107.3 billion with an index high of 1,495.18 and a low of 1,471.56.

In the morning session, an analyst at Krungsri Securities expected the day’s index to fluctuate between 1,470 and 1,500 amid an influx of foreign funds in response to positive news of Covid-19 vaccines.

“However, the SET will face volatility due to the tight valuation at a price-to-earnings ratio of 29 times and a resistance line at 1,500 points,” he said.

The 10 stocks with the highest trade value today were CPALL, KBANK, ADVANC, AOT, PTT, BAM, DELTA, IRPC, STGT and PTTGC.

As of 4.30pm, the price of oil rose by US$0.47 or 1.01 per cent to $47.04 per barrel, while gold dropped by $14.90 or 0.81 per cent, to $1,828.70 per ounce.
