Overnight Global Futures Lead
📆 10 April 2026
Commentary
(1) FKLI
KLCI ended Thursday's session in negative territory, weighed down by regional profit-taking
and subdued sentiment amid lingering uncertainty over the US-Iran ceasefire developments.
(2) FCPO
Palm oil futures settled more than 1% higher on Thursday, recouping some of the previous
session's losses, supported by bargain buying amid a rebound in crude oil prices.
(3) U.S. Stock Index Futures
U.S. stock index futures extended their rally to a seventh straight session on Thursday after
Israel announced plans to begin talks with Lebanon, easing a major source of tension in the
previously fragile Middle East ceasefire.
(4) COMEX Gold
Gold prices edged higher on Thursday, supported by a softer dollar, as appetite for risk assets
improved after Israel said it would hold talks with Lebanon, easing a major point of tension in
the fragile Iran ceasefire.
(5) Crude Oil
Oil prices retreated from their earlier highs on Thursday after U.S. crude briefly climbed above
$100 a barrel, as tensions eased when Israel announced it would begin talks with Lebanon,
addressing a major sticking point in the Iran ceasefire.

Overnight Global Futures Lead
📆 13 April 2026
Commentary
(1) FKLI
KLCI closed in positive territory on Friday, supported by firmer regional peers, though upside
momentum remained constrained following a volatile week that delivered only two advancing
sessions.
(2) FCPO
Palm oil futures retreated more than 2% on Friday, snapping a five-week rally, as concerns
that a rise in output could outstrip demand amid the ongoing Middle East war pressured
prices, even as inventories fell to a seven-month low in March.
(3) U.S. Stock Index Futures
U.S. stock index futures ended mixed on Friday, as caution over a fragile ceasefire in the
Middle East was offset by a key inflation report that was not as bad as feared.
(4) COMEX Gold
Gold prices were largely unchanged on Friday but were on track for a weekly rise as a weaker
U.S. dollar followed the U.S.–Iran truce, although investors remained cautious while
evaluating the deal’s durability and its impact on interest rates.
(5) Crude Oil
Oil prices hovered near their session lows in volatile trading on Friday, as an uneasy ceasefire
involving the U.S., Israel, and Iran persisted, while the crucial Strait of Hormuz remained
mostly closed.
