FOREIGN INVESTORS HAVE poured a net Bt79.5 billion ($2 billion) into the Thai equities market so far this year. That’s almost as much in just six weeks as the Bt100 billion that dripped in over the previous two years. In January alone, net foreign buying on the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) totalled Bt68 billion, the highest monthly amount in years. On one day alone, January 4, there was Bt15 billion-worth of net foreign buying.
And although these figures paint a clear picture of reawakened interest in the Thai equities market they understate it by almost half.
