Macquarie stated in a stock research report on April 9 that fuel prices in Southeast Asia have significantly increased and are unlikely to return to pre-Iran conflict levels in the short term. According to Jin10, the firm remains optimistic about energy-related industries, including alternatives like crude palm oil, while advising against non-essential consumer goods, hotels, and leisure sectors. Macquarie noted that after a substantial rise in oil prices, it typically takes about six months for consumer inflation to show a significant increase. The report also mentioned that energy subsidies in Malaysia and Indonesia might temporarily mitigate the negative impact on consumers.#SoutheastAsia #FuelPrices #IranConflict #Macquarie #EnergyIndustries #CrudePalmOil #ConsumerInflation #OilPrices #EnergySubsidies #Malaysia #Indonesia
