KUALA LUMPUR: The FBM KLCI slid slightly in early Thuesday trade following a weak overnight performance on Wall Street as a strong payrolls report sapped expectations for interest rate cuts.
After closing at a two-week high yesterday, the FBM KLCI slid a modest 1.3 points to 1,755.09 as traders hold on to gains amid a rally in local equities and a ringgit that is at its strongest in nearly eight years.
