MNCS Morning Navigator September 25, 2024

Global Market Highlights
The DJIA climbed by +0.20% on Tuesday (24/09), followed by the S&P 500 (+0.25%) and the Nasdaq (+0.56%). Wall Street strengthened, in line with the decline in the 10Y UST to 3.75% as markets assess the possibility of another rate cut in Nov-2024. This sentiment was driven by the drop in CB Consumer Confidence in Sep-2024, which fell to 98,7bps (vs 105.6/103.8bps Aug-2024/cons). Additionally, the continued growth of money supply (M2) in Aug-2024 to USD29.3 billion (+39.17% MoM) also acted as a positive catalyst for the stock markets. Today the market will be looking forward to several data releases such as: 1) US New Home Sales Aug-2024; 2) US MBA Purchase index Sep/20; 3) US EIA Crude Oil Stocks Change Sep/20.

Domestic Update
The Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) decided that there will be no increase in the excise tax rate on tobacco products (CHT) in 2025. MNCS Comment: Previously, the State Financial Accountability Agency (BAKN) recommended the government apply a minimum 5% excise tariff on tobacco products for the next two years. Despite no increase in the excise rate, we anticipate the government to adjust the retail selling price (HJE) of tobacco products next year, which would also lead to a higher VAT component. Additionally, there is ongoing discussion about raising cigarette VAT from 9.9% to around 10.7%.

Most sectors experienced gains, led by the consumer non-cyclical sector (+0.99%) and followed by the infrastructure sector (+0.54%). On the other hand, sectors that weakened were led by the technology sector (-1.14%) and followed by the consumer cyclical sector (-0.95%).
