Ringgit opens against US$ amid uncertainty over US tariffs breaks


KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit traded flat against the US dollar at the opening today as mixed signals from President Trump suggested that certain countries might receive tariff breaks when the reciprocal tariffs take effect on April 2, boosting appetite for riskier assets.

At 8 am, the ringgit stayed at  4.4325/4485 against the greenback from yesterday’s close of 4.4325/4370.
