• Key debates. Two-segment market. The SET’s ~+26% YTD gain has taken
most investors by surprise, particularly as performance has been highly

limited engagement in SMIDs. Earnings momentum. With 1Q26 GDP and
earnings surprising on the upside, discussions have shifted toward how much
of this strength is sustainable.
