Moofest 2025 officially opened today (24 October) at Pavilion Bukit Jalil, marking Moomoo Malaysia’s flagship annual investor event. Running until 26 October, the three-day festival brings together industry experts, fund managers, and more than 5,000 local investors under the theme “The New Map of Wealth – From AI to the World.”
The event explores how major trends, from artificial intelligence and semiconductors to clean energy and shifting global capital flows, are reshaping investment opportunities for Malaysians.
During her opening keynote, Moomoo Malaysia Chief Operating Officer Indy Lau said investor engagement with AI, semiconductor, and clean energy sectors on the Moomoo platform has grown by more than 50% this year.
In line with this growth, Moomoo introduced an upgraded version of Moomoo AI, now featuring Bahasa Malaysia language support, enhanced local market insights, and advanced data analytics. The update is designed to help retail investors interpret market information more effectively and make better-informed decisions in both domestic and global markets.
Moomoo also announced several product updates aimed at broadening market access for Malaysian investors. Following last year’s launch of U.S. options trading, the platform has expanded its analytical tools and risk management features to support more sophisticated trading strategies.
The company confirmed that U.S. IPO access will soon be added, allowing Malaysians to participate early in new listings abroad. In addition, the launch of Futures Trading opens up opportunities for portfolio diversification and risk management during volatile market conditions.
To cater to investors seeking alternative or Shariah-compliant assets, Moomoo added the AHAM Shariah Gold Tracker Fund to its suite of money market offerings, a fund that tracks gold. Moomoo said the fund responds to demand for faith-aligned options amid inflation and interest-rate uncertainty.
Isaac Lim, Moomoo’s SEA Chief Market Strategist, also delivered a session titled “The World Rewired: Where Global Investors Should Look Next.” He noted that the current cycle is characterised by greater dispersion across markets, meaning investors may need to focus more on identifying sectors where capital rotation and policy changes align.
“Opportunities aren’t in chasing what’s already run, but in identifying where innovation and capital intersect,” he said. Lim also pointed out that Malaysian investors on the Moomoo platform are increasingly diversifying their portfolios globally, with more users participating in U.S. equities and options.
Running through the weekend, Moofest 2025 includes a range of workshops, panel sessions, and experience zones for attendees to explore new tools and learn from market experts. The first 1,000 attendees each day can get limited-edition Moomoo goodie bags, while others stand a chance to win prizes such as company shares, smartphones, and smart TVs.
Through these sessions, Moomoo aims to encourage more Malaysians to engage with investing through education, hands-on learning, and exposure to current market developments.
Moofest 2025 runs until 26 October at Pavilion Bukit Jalil. Compare Moomoo’s offerings on RinggitPlus.
