Quick Summary:

Former premier Thaksin Shinawatra's proposal to cut the electricity tariff has raised regulatory risks for energy and utility stocks, says CGS International Securities, as the China-owned brokerage slashed its year-end stock index target by 100 points to 1,530.

In CGS's view, the government may subsidise the 0.45 baht per unit cut in the electricity tariff.

Sectors expected to post strong earnings growth include transport, petrochemicals and food, while weak net profit growth is forecast in construction, agriculture and consumer staples.
