PHILIPPINES

Trade tariff gridlock weighed on sentiment, PSEi @7,517: Participants gave more weight to overseas headlines, specifically on Turkey’s retaliation against the US & sequels to China’s move to seek WTO’s aid on the legality of US trade policies. The PSEi fell 23 points at 7,517 (-0.31%), after falling to an intra-day low of 7,479. Industrials fell most (-0.98%) while financials gained (+0.15%). PGOLD (-P0.10 at P44); SMPH (-P0.30 at P35.40); & BLOOM (-P0.20 at P9.50) led decliners among actively-traded shares. Turnover remained listless at P4.22bn, with gainers-losers scoring 91-108. Net foreign selling widened 37% to P884mn.
Anchored on hope: Local investors might take heart on US equities’ sharp incline (DJIA +396 points), anchoring on efforts to resolve the trade discord between China & the US.

COMMODITIES

Crude slightly recovered: Oil futures ended higher Thursday shrugging off a surprise rise in U.S. crude inventories a day before while founding support from the prospects of revived US - China trade talks. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) climbed $0.47 to $65.36/barrel.
