Overnight Global Futures Lead
📆 22 Apr 2025
Commentary
(1) FKLI
Amid cautious sentiment and foreign uncertainty, the FKLI closed flat on Monday. Meanwhile, the ringgit rose versus the US dollar to its highest level in almost 12 weeks. It will likely be difficult to sustain current gains given the absence of consistent purchasing pressure on the local front.

(2) U.S. Stock Index Futures
Following US President Donald Trump's attacks on Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell, which shook investors dealing with an escalating trade war and fueled worries about the central bank's autonomy, Wall Street's major indexes fell more than 1% each on Monday.

(3) FCPO
Due to a higher ringgit relative to the US dollar and declining crude oil prices, FCPO closed lower for the sixth consecutive day. Market sentiment was also thought to be negatively impacted by the worry about growing output.

(4) COMEX Gold
As investor confidence in the U.S. economy is eroded by President Donald Trump's tariffs and threats against the independence of the Federal Reserve, gold prices broke $3,400 on Monday, setting a new record high.

(5) Crude Oil
Oil fell as markets watched Washington-Tehran negotiations over the Islamic republic's nuclear program and worried about how the US-led trade war might affect energy consumption.
