World's biggest glove makers Top Glove Corp and Hartalega Holdings Bhd lead surge due to global demand during Covid-19 pandemic FMTNews BursaMalaysia

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian stocks are set to enter bull territory as glove makers extend their record rally.

The country is home to the world’s biggest glove makers Top Glove Corp and Hartalega Holdings Bhd, which have surged in recent weeks due to rising demand for protective equipment during the global coronavirus pandemic. The country has since reported a surprise expansion in the first quarter, unveiled a stimulus package and allowed nearly all business sectors to reopen from early May, which are set to bolster the economy.

If Malaysia can continue to see lower double-digit or even single-digit daily increases in cases, the government may ease more of the lockdown restrictions that have been in place since March, health director-general of Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah said on Thursday.
