Maybank's share price delivered a strong performance today, climbing 1.2% to close at RM9.85, after touching an intraday high of RM9.88, setting a new year-to-date record for 2026. This surge was primarily driven by optimistic market expectations for its upcoming fourth-quarter FY2025 results (for the period ended December 31, 2025). Analysts widely anticipate Maybank to report robust earnings, supported by strong loan growth, stable asset quality, and improved net interest margins (NIM). The bank has shown excellent performance in both retail and corporate lending segments, with its regional operations also contributing stable income. Investors are bullish on Maybank's leadership position as the largest domestic bank and its dividend-paying capability. Technical analysis suggests that if the share price can hold above RM9.80, it could further challenge the psychological RM10.00 level. Trading volume also increased significantly, indicating active buying interest.
