Glonghui June 18|Affin Hwang IB analysts stated in a report that uncertainties surrounding the US-Iran conflict and the upcoming state elections have cast a shadow over Malaysia's stock market prospects for the third quarter. However, they remain cautiously optimistic, believing these concerns will ease and support a recovery in the fourth quarter. They indicated that the prospect of US interest rates remaining high for a longer period, along with renewed outflows of foreign capital, is expected to keep the market volatile in the short term. They believe that market performance in the second half of the year will be driven by three key factors: sustained investment growth and infrastructure upgrades; state elections, which serve as a barometer of the political climate; and new institutional capital inflows to companies under the government’s corporate value enhancement plan. Affin Hwang maintains an “overweight” rating on the Malaysian market and keeps its KLCI target for the end of 2026 unchanged at 1,780 points.

BUZZ - Sphere Entertainment shares drop as BTIG lowers price target, citing slowing bookings

On October 6th, Sphere Entertainment (SPHR.N) shares fell over 6% to $104.04. BTIG lowered its price target from $190 to $160, which still represents a 44% upside from the latest closing price. The broker reduced its third-quarter revenue forecast for the Sphere Experience business from $123 millions to $110 millions, and its fourth-quarter forecast from $164 millions to $148 millions, both below Wall Street estimates of $123 millions and $164 millions. Based on its analysis of ticket sales, a slowdown in “The Wizard of Oz” bookings at the end of Q3, and booking trends in early October, it expects reduced ticket sales and lower revenue per performance. Among 13 brokers, 11 rate the stock as “buy” or higher, and 2 rate it as “hold,” with a median target price of $178.50, according to data compiled by LSEG. Including daily price fluctuations, the stock is up 10.50% year-to-date.
