Asia Wealth Securities (AWS) released an analysis for the trading session on October 21, 2020, indicating the essential events in the stock market as follows: 
 
Investment Ideas:
The overall investment today – The Cabinet meeting with the Prime Minister passed a resolution approving the issuance of a royal decree an extraordinary parliamentary session will be opened on 26-27 October 2020 to provide an opportunity for general discussions without a vote of Article 165 of the Constitution to listen to the opinions of the members of the Congress on finding a solution. 
AWS looks at the issue will have a less positive effect on the market because investment still faces risks of volatility, uncertainty that will arise from domestic political factors until the Extraordinary Parliament meeting in the middle of next week, as well as, organizing meetings still have many factors to consider, especially to amend the constitution. 
Besides, the current investment outlook is driven by negative foreign factors on the delay of the U.S. economic stimulus package and the COVID-19 situation which came back to spread in Europe.
 
The new BOT chairman expects that Thai GDP to turn positive again in 2Q21 – the BOT governor expects that Thai GDP to turn positive again in 2Q21, while economic activity is expected to become to normal level which like before the COVID crisis in 3Q22, while believes that Thailand’s GDP in 2020 will shrink in the range of 7.8% -8.0%.
