• The SET fluctuated but closed slightly lower than the previous week.
The SET dropped sharply early in the week following the end of 2Q-2025 earnings announcements, coupled with renewed investor concerns over domestic political situation. The Thai bourse also experienced additional pressure came from continued sell-offs in shares of a major airline company, which reported a significant rise earlier, as well as a major telecommunications company following its ex-dividend date (XD), and major energy companies following the decline in global oil prices.
However, the SET rebounded midweek, led by petrochemical shares, which were expected to benefit from the South Korean government’s announcement for production cuts in the sector. The SET rose again towards the end of the week as political concerns eased slightly after the Criminal Court acquitted former Thai prime minister in the royal insult case. Nonetheless, political developments remain a key issue to monitor, especially in the coming week. Purchases of electronics component shares also helped support the SET towards the end of the week.
