Foreign Funds Turn Net Buyers On Bursa Malaysia With RM95.2 Mln Inflow -- CIMB Securities

KUALA LUMPUR, May 11 (Bernama) -- Foreign investors turned net buyers of equities last week after three weeks of net selling, with a net inflow of RM95.2 million against a net outflow of RM160.8 million in the preceding week, according to CIMB Securities Sdn Bhd.

This raised their year-to-date (YTD) 2026 net inflow to RM3.1 billion (2025: net outflow of RM22.6 billion), the stockbroking firm said in its fund flow report for the week ended May 8, 2026.

“Foreign investors’ largest net buying was concentrated in the technology (RM119.7 million), financial services (RM117.7 million), and industrial (RM67.2 million) sectors,

“Net selling was concentrated in the consumer (RM68.5 million), utilities (RM50.6 million), and construction (RM47.9 million) sectors,” it said.

On local institutional investors, CIMB Securities said they remained net buyers for a fourth week, though net inflows grew sharply week-on-week to RM99.6 million, trimming their YTD net selling position to RM2.0 billion (2025: net inflow of RM19.4 billion).

It said local retail investors became the largest net sellers of RM301 million, reversing the net buy of RM167.1 million in the preceding week and increasing their YTD net outflow to RM1.8 billion (2025: net inflow of RM3.1 billion).

Proprietary investors turned net buyers of RM106.2 million after net selling RM16.4 million in the preceding week, raising their YTD net inflows to RM664.6 million.

“Local institutional investors recorded their largest net buying in the utilities (RM276.7 million), construction (RM86 million), and property (RM32.9 million) sectors, while their largest net selling was seen in the industrial products (RM96 million), financials (RM54 million), and plantation (RM40.4 million) sectors.

“Local retail investors were the largest net sellers in the utilities (RM244.7 million) and technology (RM98.4 million) sectors, while their largest net buying was in the consumer (RM94.1 million) and healthcare (RM28.6 million),” it said.
