The Thai stock closed at its lowest level in more than 2 months. The SET dropped throughout the week amid foreign investors’ sell-offs, dragged mainly by concerns that the Fed would aggressively raise rates after the US January PCE Price Index came out higher than market expected and steady contraction seen in Thai exports in January 202, causing the JSCCIB to downgrade Thailand’s export outlook this year in line with the global economic slowdown. However, technology stocks outperformed other those in other sectors this week, supported by the bright business outlook of a major electronics manufacturing company and a telecommunication company on its corporate merger.
