Malaysia GDP growth forecast to moderate in Q3

An average of 4.8% yoy growth is likely for the full-year.

OCBC Treasury Research noted:

KLCI was dragged into its 5-week low and ended just above the 1640 mark on Friday amidst persistent profit-taking seen in the market.

Trades are likely to be somewhat lackluster this week given the holiday disruptions but we would not rule out buying interests to prop out again if the bourse were to continue correcting towards the 1630 mark.

September trade and IPI data came in better than expected last week and are likely to signal a decent Q3 GDP growth data this Friday.

Note that we forecast GDP growth to moderate to 4.2% yoy in Q3, but still on course to reach an average of 4.8% yoy growth for the full-year.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
