The Philippine stock market lost its early momentum last week and closed 0.12% lower at 3,819.75 following the growing uneasiness over the US economy and rising oil prices.
On Monday, October 15, investors snapped up stocks after returning from a 3-day weekend, with the composite index (PSEi) finishing at 3,861.38, nearly 1% higher from the previous week’s close.
Investor sentiment dampened during the week, however, as oil prices became volatile and concerns over the US economy continued.
