Description
Summary:Since the first case was reported at the tail end of 2019, COVID-19 has spread around the world, resulting in over 2 million confirmed cases. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 illness a pandemic on March 11, 2020. The COVID19 outbreak has had an effect on the global financial system. Within this market is Malaysia. This study's objective is to examine how the COVID- 19 outbreak has affected Malaysia's stock market, particularly in the areas of technology. Due to the coronavirus's rapid spread, Malaysia, like other nations, had to deal with economic hardship. The epidemic is accelerating Malaysia's economy. Rapid economic contraction that affected the majority of economic sectors and destabilized the economy has plagued the economy for some time. However, because the social isolation policy had no effect on the rising demand for their goods, the positive impact of COVID-19 sparked rapid expansion and enormous profits in the food, technology, and medical supply industries. The coronavirus (COVID- 19) outbreak, which is causing widespread anxiety and financial hardship, is leading consumers, businesses, and communities all over the world to be concerned.
