The FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) closed higher today, driven by buying interest in banking stocks and positive regional market performance. Although the broader market remained negative, the KLCI rose 4.79 points or 0.3 percent to 1,596.20. Analyst Thong Pak Leng attributed the KLCI’s positive performance to softer-than-expected US inflation figures, fueling optimism for potential interest rate reductions.
