‘หุ้นกลุ่มชิน’ ค่อยๆ จางไปจากหุ้นไทย หรือเป็นกลยุทธ์การ ‘เฟดตัว’ | THE STANDARD WEALTH

The term "sector stocks" historically referred to companies with significant roles in the domestic capital market, often intertwined with politics. The Shin Corporation group, once prominent, has largely faded from the Thai stock market. This shift occurred as ownership structures changed, notably with the sale of Shin Corp. to Singapore's Temasek Group in 2006 for over 70 billion baht. The former Shin Corporation, now Intouch Holdings, has undergone mergers and ownership changes. Major subsidiaries like THCOM have also changed hands. Currently, only two companies with direct Shinawatra family connections remain prominent: SC Asset Corporation (real estate) and Rama 9 Hospital (PR9). The recent parole of former Prime Minister Thaksin has brought renewed attention to these stocks, though the transcript suggests THCOM hasn't seen positive movement. The overall trend indicates a diminishing influence of this group on the Thai stock market.
