Ringgit extends gain for seventh day after US rate cut


 KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit extended its gains for the seventh day on Thursday, opening higher against the US dollar, supported by the much-anticipated 25 basis points cut last night by the US Federal Reserve (US Fed), an analyst said.

At 8 am, the ringgit appreciated to 4.1835/2050 against the greenback from Wednesday’s close of 4.1850/1900.
