BURSA Malaysia’s benchmark index rebounded to close higher today, supported by persistent buying in heavyweights and improved sentiment amid growing hopes for interest rate cuts in the United States.
At 5 pm, the FBM KLCI rose 12.76 points, or 0.79 per cent, to 1,624.50 from Tuesday’s close of 1,611.74.
The barometer index, which opened 4.39 points higher at 1,616.13, slipped to a low of 1,614.41 during the morning session but regained its footing to hit a high of 1,624.97 in late trading.
However, the broader market was negative, with decliners outpacing gainers 608 to 517. A total of 563 counters were unchanged, 1,113 untraded and 82 suspended. —Nov 26, 2025
