Market View: Markets rally on a two-week ceasefire - Is this relief or risk mispriced?

Energy markets remain a key concern. After weeks of heightened focus, the question now is whether prices are entering a more stable phase or if volatility will persist. For Asia, potential shifts toward alternative oil sources such as the US raise structural questions, particularly around the mismatch between heavier crude exports and the region’s refining configurations.

Apple also comes into focus after reports that its foldable iPhone has encountered engineering challenges, potentially delaying its launch. The stock fell sharply on the news, just as it appeared to be building upward momentum. With key technical levels holding, the question now is whether this setback disrupts its trajectory or presents a temporary pause.

On Market View, Sean Cheong speaks to Tareck Horchani, Head of Trading and Sales Trading at Maybank, to discuss about the latest market movements.
