GDP growth accelerated in Q1 amid a broad-based improvement. Turning to this quarter, the government’s Endemic Phase strategy to live alongside the virus should be buttressing overall activity. In April, the unemployment rate reached its lowest level since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, which should have supported private spending. Similarly, the manufacturing PMI averaged higher in April–May compared to the previous quarter. On the external front, the country is expected to benefit from currently-elevated prices for its main exports: palm oil, rubber and natural gas. Meanwhile, on 1 June, Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced a ban on chicken exports in an effort to control rising price pressures. Although the ban has since eased to a selection of chicken products, the ongoing restrictions are likely to impact trade.Malaysia - Stock Market Data
