Thai stocks fell, nearing bear market territory, as the ongoing selloff by foreign investors and slower economic growth weighed on sentiment.

The benchmark SET Index dropped 0.5% to close at 1,373.92 on Tuesday. That brings losses from a Feb. 2022 high to nearly 20%. The gauge is among the world’s worst performers this year.
