KLCI climbs on tech and PETRONAS-linked gains


Rakuten Trade's Thong said the benchmark index continues to show strength, supported by steady net foreign inflows and sustained interest in heavyweight counters.

KUALA LUMPUR: Persistent buying momentum, mostly seen in selected technology and Petroliam Nasional Bhd (PETRONAS)-linked counters pushed the FBM KLCI to record another intraday high at the close yesterday, extending its rally to five consecutive trading sessions, an analyst says.

Malaysian Pacific Industries Bhd and Petronas Dagangan Bhd were among the top two gainers, rising RM1 and 44 sen to RM22.40 and RM21.70, respectively.
