0604 GMT - Malaysia's 2027 budget could carry an election-friendly tone that benefits certain domestic-facing sectors, TA Securities analyst Kaladher Govindan says in a note. Likely priorities include rail infrastructure projects in Penang and Johor, flood-mitigation and water infrastructure, as well as AI, data centers and semiconductor manufacturing incentives. Cost-of-living relief is also probably on the table. Sectors including construction, property and utilities are expected to benefit the most from fiscal spending, he says. Technology and plantation sectors could also gain from targeted incentives to support long-term growth. TA Securities flags Gamuda, Tenaga Nasional, Telekom Malaysia, Nestle (Malaysia) and Sime Darby Property as among the companies that stand to gain.
