KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia’s benchmark index ended the day broadly lower, mirroring regional market trends, as investor sentiment was dampened by the US Federal Reserve’s (Fed) decision to maintain interest rates and the People’s Bank of China’s (PBOC) unexpected decision to keep its key lending rates unchanged, said an analyst.
At 5 pm, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) slipped by 13.50 points, or 0.89 per cent, to 1,504.16 from Wednesday’s close of 1,517.66.
