KUALA LUMPUR (March 4): The FBM KLCI closed down 7.19 points or 0.45% today tracking the negative performance of Asian equities after an overnight surge in bond yields again dragged shares on Wall Street.
At 5pm, the benchmark index closed at 1,581.26 points. Today, the index had mostly traded in negative territory, ranging between 1,577.39 and 1,590.46 compared with yesterday’s closing of 1,588.45.
Malacca Securities Sdn Bhd senior analyst Kenneth Leong told theedgemarkets.com the weakness in the local bourse performance today was in line with regional markets after Wall Street dropped yesterday due to rising Treasury yield.
The rising yield has sparked investors concerns that this may prompt central banks to raise ultra-low interest rates, which is bad for the equity market.
