SPX gained 88 pts or 1.1% for the week at 7811, positioning at near historical high level again. Mega-cap tech and robust corporate fundamentals continue to power the rally. Despite interest rate uncertainty and sticky inflation debates, institutional buyers remain firmly in control. The broader trend stays intact.

Next week, the SPX is likely to test the historical level, with support 7725, resistance 7900.

KLCI fell 22 pts or 1.3% for the week at 1608. Foreign institutions net sold RM79 million in the latest session, their 9th straight day of selling. October to date: RM335 million net outflow. Year to date: RM6.48 billion. Local institutions bought the dip for a 4th straight session. Reasons given: high global bond yields, oil prices, geopolitical risk, the Melaka state election and caution ahead of the Budget.

Despite the sell off, it is an opportunity to accummulate dividend stocks given the low valuation in the Bursa Malaysia stocks.

Next week there could be technical rebound, the support is seen at 1595, resistance 1625.

STI: The STI fell a whopping 232pts or 4.1% for the week at 5401 due to some downgrades of OCBC by some investment banks, citing limited upside, weaker dividend yield and concern over earnings and capital ratios. However, analysts suggest that this decline maybe primarily due to profit taking rather than a deterioration in the bank's fundamentals.

Next week there should be a technical rebound, and the STI support is seen at 5350, resistance is 5550.

SPX: The SPX lost 20pts or -0.3% for the week at 7722. The index is currently short term bearish at below its 20 day MA line but above the 200 day MA line. The backdrop remains choppy. Oil prices and Treasury yields are still the key swing factors, and investors are watching the Middle East closely. With the index sitting less than 1% below its record high, the market is looking for a fresh catalyst to push on to new highs.

Next week, the support is 7600, resistance 7850.

KLCI: The KLCI shed 40 points, or 2.4%, this week to close at 1,630. The index is now short-term bearish, trading below both its 20-day and 200-day moving averages. Tuesday's breakdown from a nine-month triple top pattern suggests the market may be entering a correction phase that could last the next few months.

On the macro front, the PMI slipped into contraction territory at 49.9, ending three consecutive months above the 50 mark. Although Malaysia continues to post positive GDP growth, business owners are clearly feeling the squeeze from rising operating costs.

All eyes will be on Budget 2027 next week. With the announcement scheduled for Friday, any market reaction is likely to play out the following week. Judging by current price action, investors aren't holding out high hopes. The immediate support for the KLCI is 1610, resistance is 1660.

STI: STI has fallen 76 pts or 1.3% for the week ended Oct 2. The index is currently short term bearish at below the 20 day MA line but above the 200 day MA line. A 2 month Head and Shoulder is formed with STI at the neckline now. This means that for next week if the STI were to break below the current 5634 level, it may fall further to 5460 level. Immediate support is 5570, resistance is 5720.

Technically the KLCI has broken a 9-month chart pattern which is not a good sign. This may mean more volatility in the next few days. Next support to watch out for is 1610 level. Nevertheless it's a good opportunity to accumulate the dividend stocks.

📊 Weekly Market Technical Read: SPX | KLCI | STI — Week Ended 4 Sep 2026

This week shows a growing divergence across the three markets. STI has regained strong upward momentum (thanks to the banking stocks), SPX remains in consolidation near its highs, while KLCI has weakened further and is testing an important support area (OPR remained at 2.75%).

🇺🇸 SPX: The primary bullish trend remains intact, but the index continues to consolidate below the 7,800–7,850 resistance area. RSI at 55.32 remains above its signal line of 54.26, suggesting neutral-to-mildly positive momentum rather than an overbought market. For now, 7,600–7,850 remains the key range to watch.

🇲🇾 KLCI: The weakest of the three this week. The index has fallen to 1,708.10, below its 20-day MA of 1,729.61 and very close to its rising 200-day MA around 1,699. RSI has dropped sharply to 42.55, below its signal line of 52.23, confirming weaker short-term momentum. 1,695–1,700 is now a crucial support zone, while 1,725 becomes the immediate resistance.

🇸🇬 STI: The standout performer. After consolidating around 5,700 last week, STI has broken higher and closed at 5,801.97, successfully clearing the previous 5,775–5,800 resistance area. RSI has strengthened to 65.07 and remains above its signal line of 60.06. Momentum is bullish without yet being excessively overbought. The next range to watch is 5,700–5,875.

For next week, the key question is: Can STI extend its breakout toward 5,875, can SPX finally clear 7,850, and—most importantly—can KLCI defend the critical 1,695–1,700 support zone?
