Bursa tracks Wall Street higher as oil prices slip below US$100/barrel

KUALA LUMPUR: The domestic market tracked Wall Street's overnight surge although the benchmark composite index remained flattish as a decline in oil prices capped gains.

At 9.05am, the FBM KLCI was up 1.37 points to 1,558.78 following a strong advance in US markets as Brent crude futures dipped below the US$100 a barrel mark.
