KUALA LUMPUR: News on stock, crypto and ringgit moves.

Bursa Malaysia ended on a positive note, supported by renewed investor confidence after the White House announced reduced tariffs on Malaysian exports.

Following the tariff clarity, the FBM KLCI is anticipated to trade within the range of 1,545 to 1,555 points next week, driven by clearer investor outlook.

Meanwhile, the ringgit weakened against the US dollar, closing at 4.2780.

In the cryptocurrency market, a downtrend was observed. Bitcoin slipped to RM494,244, while Ethereum traded lower at RM15,579.

Solana also declined, trading at RM721.

That wraps up today’s Market Pulse.
