Ringgit falls against the greenback


At 6pm, the local note fell to 4.2500/2540 against the greenback.

KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit closed lower against the greenback yesterday as concerns over US tariffs continued to dominate market sentiment, an analyst says.

Additionally, the 25-basis-point cut in the overnight policy rate (OPR) announced by Bank Negara at 3pm had also contributed to the easing of the ringgit.
