KUALA LUMPUR: The FBM KLCI fell to the lowest this year at midday on Monday, dragged down by losses in Petronas Dagangan and KL Kepong, while the broader market weakened with 886 counters in the red.
At 12.30pm, the KLCI was down 17.40 points or 1.12% to 1, 542.28 – extending the decline from last Friday’s close when it ended at the year’s low due to uncertainties about the economic outlook caused by the spike in Covid-19 infections and ensuing lockdown.
