Thailand - Market factors to watch - March 29 Mar 29th 2012, 02:43 Tweet Share this Email Print Wed Mar 28, 2012 10:43pm EDT BANGKOK, March 29 (Reuters) - Thai stocks are likely to fall slightly on Thursday, tracking losses in regional and U.S. stocks, while weaker global oil prices may weigh on energy shares, which have a big weighting in the Thai index. "The market is expected to open lower, following on from yesterday and following other stocks in the region and the U.S. However, we don't expect the fall to be significant," said Parin Kitchatornpitak, senior analyst at broker KTB Securities. On Wednesday, the SET index fell 0.27 percent to 1,204.01 but foreign investors bought shares worth a net 790.44 million baht ($26 million)after 2.47 billion baht ($80 million)on Tuesday. The Dow Jones average closed down 0.54 percent. Investors are still looking for positive signals on the U.S. economy as the Federal Reserve continues to provide support with easy monetary policy. Parin expected the market to face resistance at 1,210, with support at 1,195.
