Southeast Asia Markets Rise, Defying Global Pressure
Regional Asian markets showed selective strength, with Bangladesh’s DSEX and Mongolia’s MSETOP indices edging up 0.34%, defying the global equity selloff. Analysts attributed the resilience to strong local liquidity and domestic investor participation, offsetting external pressures from U.S.-China trade tensions. The modest gains highlight how frontier and smaller Asian markets remain driven by country-specific fundamentals, including earnings momentum and policy stability, rather than global risk sentiment dominating broader regional benchmarks.
