KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia closed higher on Monday, underpinned by gains in plantation and new entrants to the FBM KLCI – Telekom Malaysia and KLCCP – but Asian markets were impacted by worries about fresh Covid-19 pensions.
At 5pm, the KLCI was up 3.98 points or 0.26% to 1,511.24. Turnover was 6.33 billion shares valued at RM3.11bil. The broader market was more cautious as decliners beat advancers 549 to 434 and 386 counters were unchanged.
