Ringgit ends higher versus US dollar


KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit traded more favourably against the US dollar on the last day of the week, ending on a firmer note amid improved sentiment following China’s move to cut a key interest rate to boost its economy, analysts said.

At 6 pm, the local currency stood at 4.3870/3910 versus the greenback compared with Thursday's close of 4.4030/4060.
