The analyst expected the Thai stock market to rise in line with most regional markets, following the gain in the technology sector, oil prices and the rebound in bitcoin. However, the movement in the Thai stock market whether to increase more or less would be depending on the matter of vaccine rollout.
Moreover, many markets in Asia will be closed tomorrow. After that, MSCI will reduce the weight of investing in Thai stocks. Therefore, the market may choose to play individual stocks, but big-cap stocks would remain stable.
