Market down on elections?


PETALING JAYA: With the general election just around the corner, the stock market is already reacting ahead of the dissolution of Parliament expected at the end of the month with voting to take place in April.

Typically the stock market sees a selldown once Parliament has been dissolved. This time around, investors might just be heaving a sigh of relief as the FBM KLCI has already been pummelled by the guessing game of when the elections will be held.
