KUALA LUMPUR: The positive momentum on Bursa Malaysia continued, buoyed by a positive Wall Street performance on Friday as well as better-than-expected economic growth.

"Given the key index is staying above the 1,500 level, the local bourse may see more upward movement driven by optimism ahead of the upcoming reporting season, in view of the better-than-expected Malaysia GDP data," said Malacca Securities Research in a report.

The research firm expects defensive stocks such as selected banking, consumer and REIT counters to record buying interest in expectation of solid earnings results.

Most bank stocks remained buoyed by the positive gross domestic product result. Maybank was up two sen to RM8.99 and Public Bank rose one sne to RM4.66.
