#BURSA Sector-wise, the #Plantation-Index was up #Finance-Index improved #Industrial-Index better


Malaysia: Bursa Malaysia opened higher today, taking the cue from the better performance on Wall Street on Friday amid firmer crude oil prices, a dealer said.
At 9.05 am, the benchmark FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) was 1.91 points higher at 1,742.56 from last Friday's close of 1,740.65.
The index opened 1.64 points higher at 1,742.29 at 9 am.
Gainers led losers by 144 to 71 while 217 counters remained unchanged with 1,419 untraded and 19 others were suspended.
Turnover stood at 184.22 million shares worth RM46.79 million.
The dealer said the key index was in line with Friday's gains on the Wall Street following stronger expectations on US President Donald Trump's tax-cut decision.
Meanwhile, he said, the local bourse was also supported by the increase in the crude oil prices due to the news reported on Saudi Arabia and Iraq's plans to reduce the crude oil supply.
The overnight benchmark Brent crude oil futures went up 0.16 per cent to US$57.84 (US$1 = RM4.22) per barrel while the US West Texas Intermediate crude oil futures were 0.37 per cent higher at US$52.03 per barrel.
