KUALA LUMPUR: Key regional markets may take the cue from the US and European markets’ tepid sentiment and trade cautiously ahead of the weekend on Friday, July 28 as a confluence of factors including deadlock over raising the debt ceiling and a decline in durable goods orders in the US could kept investors on the sidelines.

Asian markets were mixed on Thursday, as while on the one hand 27 China’s industrial profits 28.7% in the first half from a year earlier to 2.4 trillion yuan (about US$373 billion), lifting sentiment at some of the markets, worries of the US debt woes dragged others.

Investor sentiment has been see-sawing this week as a Republican plan to cut the US deficit met stiff opposition, reducing the chances of a late compromise to avoid a crippling debt default.

Among the stocks to watch on Bursa Malaysia today are FAVELLE FAVCO BHD [], Sarawak Consolidated Industries Bhd (SCIB), LION FOREST INDUSTRIES BHD [] (LFIB), ZECON BHD [], KNM GROUP BHD []
