PHILIPPINES

Selling prevailed, PSEi @7,221:Wednesday’s trade failed to hold on early gains, as profit-taking ensued with very little local catalysts at home. After moving to an intra-day high of 7,338, the PSEi finished 65 points lower at 7,221 (-0.9%), primed by mining/oil (-2.7%) & financials' (-1.6%) decline. BPI (-P2.60 at P79.50); MBT (-P1.10 at P64.90); AC (-P19 at P886); ALI (-P0.50 at P40); & SM (-P1 at P890) led actively-traded shares, while SMPH (+P0.45 at P36.95); & URC (+P1.10 at P144.10) defied the trend. Turnover was P5.3bn, with gainers-losers scoring 36-153. Net foreign selling stood at P637mn.
Gradual positioning: Players will heed the market’s response on August’s reversal to BoP surplus as well as US equities’ ascent, against some naysayers’ weak view on the market. Funds that were not accepted in the latest TDF auction might also find its way in equities, as others partake on an expected technical rebound. Index stocks battered by the latest sell-off might be highlighted, specifically holdings & property. Immediate support is 7,190-7,200, resistance 7,300.
