The Stock Exchange of Thailand index tumbled heavily today. As of 3:00 p.m., the index stood at 1,590.16 points, down 34.31 points or 2.11%, after plunging as much as 35 points during the day. Bualuang Securities stated that the main pressure came from DELTA shares, which carry a high weighting in the index, after the company reported second-quarter 2026 earnings that came in below market expectations. This led to index distortion, where the index fell more sharply than the actual overall picture of most stocks in the market.
