SET rides wave of post-poll optimismThe Stock Exchange of Thailand closed the first month of 2026 with high hopes for an election-themed rally. The SET closed the month at 1,325.62 points, an increase of 5.2% from December, with average daily turnover rising 48.4% to 46.2 billion baht. The day after the election, the SET jumped 3.5% or 46.88 points to close at 1,400.89, with turnover of 102 billion baht. Except for special rebalancing days, we haven't seen 100 billion baht in daily turnover for almost three years. We also believe TRUE will be able to increase its dividend payout ratio from 50% to almost 100%.
