Thailand’s SET50 Index rose 0.8% to 1,034 around midday on Thursday, building strength from the prior session and hitting its highest level since early 2022, amid robust foreign fund inflows and reports of more than 14 million international visitors in the first five months of 2026.
Meanwhile, factory activity in Thailand grew for the 13th straight month in May, supported by faster new orders and stronger business confidence, adding to the bullish momentum.
However, escalating geopolitical and trade tensions capped further gains.
Simultaneously, April's private consumption fell the most since mid-July, as higher energy costs squeezed Thailand's households.
Industrial services, producer manufacturing, and consumer durables were among the top movers, with notable movers including Airports of Thailand (4.0%), Cal-Comp Electronics (2.0%), Bangkok Dusit Medical Services (1.1%), and Carabao Group (1.2%).
