Bursa holds gains at lunch break despite softer market sentiment
KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia ended the morning trading session in positive territory, though the tone remained soft due to mixed regional performances, with buying interest expected to shift towards fundamentally strong companies. At 12.30 pm, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) rose by 2.08 points to 1,521.49, from Monday's close of 1,519.41. The benchmark index opened 0.30 points higher at 1,519.71, and subsequently fluctuated between 1,517.74 and 1,522.30 throughout the session. Advancers edged ahead of decliners at 384 versus 381 on the broader market, while a total of 466 counters were unchanged, 1,138 untraded and 11 suspended. Turnover stood at 1.79 billion units, valued at RM883.18 million. Malacca Securities Sdn Bhd said the local bourse is expected to see subdued trading, as investors' attention may shift to fundamentally strong companies. Wall Street is expected to focus on the United States-China trade talks, which have driven modest gains in equities as officials hinted at progress ahead of the resumption of negotiations on Tuesday.
