FBM KLCI - possible peak with reversal in sight

Stocks on Bursa Malaysia closed slightly higher yesterday, supported by late buying interest which helped pare losses in the earlier session.

However, the FBM KLCI started to stabilise later as investors resumed their activities and began bargain hunting. The FBM KLCI inched up 0.40 of a point to close at 1,685.40, after opening 3.33 points higher at 1,688.33. The key index dipped to a low of 1,632.28, while scaling a high of 1,692.85 for the day. Decliners led losers by 585 to 237 with 300 counters unchanged. Turnover advanced to 1.345 billion shares worth RM2.893 from the 1.007 billion shares worth RM1.976 billion on Tuesday. ...Read more>>
