Overnight Global Futures Lead
📆 14 April 2026
Commentary
(1) FKLI
KLCI ended Monday's session in negative territory, tracking broader regional declines, as the
breakdown of U.S.-Iran peace negotiations dampened investor sentiment and curbed risk
appetite across equities.
(2) FCPO
Palm oil futures rose on Monday, recovering slightly from the previous session's loss, as
geopolitical jitters in the Middle East lifted crude oil prices and spurred buying interest in the
oilseed.
(3) U.S. Stock Index Futures
U.S. Stock Index Futures closed about 1% higher on Monday, recovering strongly from an
early decline as software stocks rebounded, attention turned to the start of the earnings
season, and optimism grew that U.S.–Iran talks might continue despite negotiations breaking
down over the weekend.
(4) COMEX Gold
Gold prices edged lower on Monday as a firmer dollar and renewed inflation worries
dampened expectations for interest-rate cuts following the collapse of U.S.–Iran peace talks.
(5) Crude Oil
Oil prices jumped about 6% on Monday, rising above $100 a barrel after the U.S. announced
a blockade of ships leaving Iran’s ports, fueling fears of supply disruptions.

Overnight Global Futures Lead
📆 16 April 2026
Commentary
(1) FKLI
KLCI closed marginally lower on Wednesday as early gains were pared by profit-taking in key
heavyweight stocks, particularly within the financial services and utilities sectors.
(2) FCPO
Palm oil futures reversed course to settle slightly higher on Wednesday, shrugging off
pressure from a slower-than-expected expansion of the country's biodiesel mandate and
weakness in rival oils.
(3) U.S. Stock Index Futures
U.S Stock Index Futures closed on a mixed note Wednesday, as investors weighed optimism
over possible renewed U.S.–Iran talks alongside a wave of new corporate earnings reports.
(4) COMEX Gold
Gold edged lower on Wednesday after reaching a one-month high, as investors evaluated
recent developments in the U.S.–Iran situation and their potential impact on the interest rate
outlook.
(5) Crude Oil
Oil prices stabilized Wednesday near three-week lows amid ongoing signs that a fresh round
of negotiations are being planned before the cease-fire deal expires next Tuesday.
