Ringgit falls vs US dollar at the close


KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit ended lower against the US dollar as oil prices declined, and the pressure was exacerbated by growing anticipations of an aggressive interest rate hike decision by the United States Federal Reserve tomorrow, said an analyst.

At 6 pm, the local currency fell to 4.5585/5595 against the greenback from 4.5495/5515 at Monday’s close.
