PATTAYA, Thailand – Kasikorn Securities expects the Thai stock market to remain range-bound during the week of June 1–5, with the SET Index facing support levels at 1,550 and 1,540 points, while resistance is seen at 1,580 and 1,600 points. According to analysts, investors will closely monitor Thailand’s May consumer price index (CPI), developments in the Middle East, and the direction of foreign capital flows, all of which could influence market sentiment in the coming days.
Market participants are also expected to focus on a series of key U.S. economic indicators, including the ISM and PMI manufacturing and services indexes, ADP private-sector employment data, non-farm payrolls, the unemployment rate for May, and weekly jobless claims. Internationally, investors will be watching May PMI data from China, Japan, the Eurozone, and the United Kingdom, along with preliminary May inflation figures, April producer price data, and first-quarter 2026 GDP numbers from the Eurozone.
The outlook follows a strong performance by Thai equities last week. On May 29, the SET Index closed at 1,568.37 points, up 1.93% from the previous week’s close. Average daily trading turnover rose 22.25% week-on-week to 68.82 billion baht. Meanwhile, the Market for Alternative Investment (mai) Index gained 1.08% during the week to finish at 214.21 points. Analysts said upcoming economic releases and geopolitical developments will likely determine whether the market can sustain its recent gains and challenge the upper end of its projected trading range.
