Index Drops But Trading Value On Thai Bourse Rises In January
Date 09/02/2011
In 2010, The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) had the second-highest rate of return in all of Asia, at 40.60% for the year. It was therefore no surprise that foreign investors cashed in on some of their profits in January 2011, as they did in other emerging markets that had given such high returns in 2010, moving to markets expected to benefit from the US economic recovery. Thus, as of January 31, the SET Index closed at 964.10, down 6.65% from end-2010. The decrease in stock prices led SET’s market capitalization to drop to THB7.81 trillion (approx. USD 254.43 billion), while the SET’s forward P/E ratio also dropped from 14.55 at end-2010 to 11.48 at end-January 2011. However, daily average trading value of the SET and Market for Alternative Index (mai) rose to THB36 billion (approx. USD 1.17 billion), an 89.23% year-on-year surge and a 12.06% month-on-month increase. The daily average trading volume on the derivatives market also increased in all products, particularly 10-baht weight gold futures, went up to 2,925 contracts, which is the highest record since it opened for trade in August 2010.
