Bursa to maintain positive sentiment after Wall St rally

KUALA LUMPUR: After a last minute surge in buying interest snapped a three-day losing streak on the FBM KLCI yesterday, investor sentiment is expected to be further boosted by the strong overnight performance of US equities overnight, said Malacca Securities Research.

"Given the strong boost on Wall Street, we believe the overall market conditions could perform better on the local front," the research firm said in a note.
