To ride out volatility, ASPS urges diversification
Bangkok Post
|April 23, 2025
Amid rising volatility in the global market, Asia Plus Securities (ASPS) is advising investors to diversify their portfolios internationally this quarter, focusing on fundamentally strong global equities in domestic-oriented, defensive, and high-dividend sectors to help mitigate risks.
The Thai stock market is expected to remain sluggish as the US has delayed the implementation of reciprocal tariffs by 90 days.
While Thailand's first-quarter GDP is expected to grow by 3% and listed companies are still reporting solid earnings, the outlook for the second half remains uncertain due to potential ripple effects from rising US tariffs.
Thammarat Kittisiripat, head of global equity strategy at ASPS, said the US-China trade war has escalated to unprecedented levels, with both countries imposing aggressive tariff hikes.
The economic impact is expected to continue for the first 1-2 years of the second Donald Trump administration, increasing the risk of a US recession and prompting downward revisions in global economic forecasts.
