Investment Ideas:
Investment Overview Today – AWS believes that the SET Index is volatile, but today will be able to recover. Positive factors to support in the short-term is the progress on vaccine development in foreign countries, relieving concerns about the current of COVID-19 situation. Yesterday, the SET Index traded in negative territory all day, as well as regional stock markets and the European stock markets due to concerns with the situation of  COVID-19, both domestic and abroad. Thailand has found infected people in Bangkok and Rayong. However, the SET Index has recovered and reduced the negative range to close at 1,341.07 points, down 1.3 points  (-0.1%) only. Investment strategy today (15 July), AWS still focus on stocks in the group that have specific positive factors according to the theme investment.
 
The SET Index and regional stock markets are expected to return with the positive sentiment on vaccine development progress – According to Moderna, the U.S. biotechnology company, reported that the mRNA-1273 vaccine for the COVID-19 virus produced by the company is able to create strong immune responses. AWS sees this issue to reduce concerns for the COVID-19 situation that pressured the overall investment at the beginning of the week.
 
OPEC+ is expected to receive JMMC proposals to ease production cuts – An issue worth observing at the JMMC meeting of the OPEC+ tonight. The discussion is about the oil production capacity reduction agreement according to the original agreement (6 June), in which OPEC+ extended the time to reduce the production capacity of 9.7 million barrels per day to July 2020 (originally ending June 2020). Consensus estimates that OPEC + will agree to the proposal of JMMC to relax the reduction of production to 7.7 million barrels per day from August – Dec 2020, causing us to expect WTI oil prices to remain stable in the range of USD37 – 42 dollars per barrel.
