    [BANGKOK] On Dec 30, the last day of trading for the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) in 2022, a piece of history was created.

    That was the day the share price of Delta Electronics (Thailand) touched a then all-time high of 876 baht (S$35.10).

    This was an increase of over 154 baht from the previous day’s close, and turned Delta – an exporter and manufacturer of power supplies and electronic components – into the largest listed company in Thailand for the day with a market capitalisation of more than 1.09 trillion baht.
