Malaysian Ringgit declines most in two weeks


KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit fell the most in two weeks on speculation last week’s rally was overdone given that oil prices remain depressed and China’s economy is still slowing.

The ringgit climbed 2.1% in the five days through Nov 20, rising along with other regional currencies after the Federal Reserve indicated it would increase interest rates gradually once it takes the first step, most likely in December.
