The Baht weakened slightly while the SET continued to close in positive territory

คะแนนเฉลี่ย
•    The Thai stock market closed in positive territory for the sixth consecutive week, despite a pullback toward the end of the week.
        The SET Index surged early in the week amid strong buying from foreign investors, partly due to buybacks after portfolio adjustments following the MSCI rebalance at the end of May. The buying was spread across large-cap stocks in all sectors, led by the technology sector, which continued to benefit from the AI and data center trend. 
        However, after briefly rising above 1,600 points during the week and reaching a 3-year and 2-month high of 1,607.25 points, the SET Index trimmed its gains towards the end of the week, in line with regional bourses. This was due to profit-taking in technology stocks following declines in US tech stocks. Meanwhile, tensions in the Middle East persisted, with reports of ongoing attacks in the region and unresolved negotiations between the US and Iran.
•    On Friday, June 5, 2025, the SET closed at 1,582.60 points, up 0.91 percent over-week. The average daily trading value was THB83,569.31 million, up 21.44 percent over-week. The mai closed at 216.30 points, up 0.98 percent over-week.
•    During June 8-12, 2026, KSecurities expects the SET to have support at 1,560 and 1,550 points, but resistance at 1,610 and 1,625 points, respectively. KResearch advises investors to watch key factors, including developments in the Middle East, and foreign capital flows. US economic data that merits close watch includes May existing home sales, CPI, and PPI, plus weekly jobless claims. Other important overseas economic indicators to monitor include Japan’s GDP report for 1Q-2026 and May PPI, China’s May economic data such as exports, CPI and PPI, plus the upcoming ECB meeting.
