“I think we are moving into a state of neutrality for foreign exchange and bond markets so I’m expecting the ringgit to trade in similar ranges next week at the 4.12 to 4.14 level. “But traders are concerned over the stronger run of US economic data which will eventually nudge US bond yields higher and is likely to hold bullish ringgit sentiment at bay next week,” Axi chief global market strategist Stephen Innes told Bernama.
