Ringgit ends lower vs US dollar, rises vs major currencies


KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit ended lower against the US dollar on Friday as risk sentiments for the local note remained fragile following higher United States Treasury yields, said an economist.

At 6 pm, the ringgit depreciated to 4.7750/7795 versus the greenback compared with Thursday’s close of 4.7710/7800.
