Ringgit regains strength against US$ at opening


KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit regained some strength to open higher against the US dollar as the greenback's demand weakened amid expectations of an aggressive monetary policy stance by the US Federal Reserve (Fed) in the third week this month.

At 9.02 am, the local currency increased to 4.3805/3840 versus the US dollar from Wednesday’s close of 4.3880/3910.
