The Thai stock market has been fluctuating between positive and negative closes over the past six trading days after a five-day winning streak. The Stock Exchange of Thailand is currently just above 1,215 points and is expected to rise on Thursday amidst uncertain global market conditions due to U.S. trade policy concerns.

On Wednesday, the SET index closed slightly higher at 1,216.71, with gains in consumer and technology sectors offsetting weakness in financial, resource, and industrial shares. Trading volume was 8.390 billion shares worth 43.111 billion baht, with 304 decliners and 196 gainers.

Wall Street had a mixed closing, with the Dow down, NASDAQ up, and S&P 500 slightly higher. Traders are cautious due to uncertainty surrounding trade policies and upcoming U.S. economic data releases, including producer prices, retail sales, and industrial production. Crude oil prices also fell on Wednesday after a surprise increase in U.S. crude inventories.
