SET Market Report For February 2026

Date 09/03/2026

The Thai stock market closed February on a high note, finishing at 1,528.26 points — a gain of 15.3 percent month-on-month and 21.3 percent from the end of 2025. The rally was propelled by foreign capital inflows following a decisive domestic election outcome, which bolstered confidence in Thailand's political stability, as well as the better-than-expected fourth-quarter 2025 GDP growth. In addition, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not authorize the President to impose broad-based tariffs. In response, President Donald Trump invoked Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 to impose a universal tariff of 10 percent, which was subsequently raised to 15 percent. Nevertheless, the revised rate remains lower than those previously levied under the IEEPA, providing a positive impact on Thailand's export sector.
