The Thai stock market continued to drop over-week. The SET moved within a narrow range before dropping sharply later amid concerns that the Fed would raise interest rates at least twice more in coming months after the US January inflation came out higher than expected. However, the SET rebounded briefly during the week on the purchases of shares of a major electronics manufacturer due to stock split and better-than-expected performance results. As a result, stocks in all sectors, except technology, underperformed this week. Nonetheless, the SET tumbled again at the end of the week as the Thai GDP for 2022 grew lower than expected.
On Friday, February 17, 2022, the SET closed at 1,651.67 points, down 0.77% over-week. The average daily trading value was THB70,974.88 million, up 21.39% over-week. The mai closed at 569.48 points, down 6.11% over-week.
