PETALING JAYA: A combination of a warning from the regulators on the unsustainable trading activities on Bursa Malaysia, together with a weak performance of the US stock market, saw cautious trading at the local stock exchange.
After four consecutive days of uptrend, the FBM KLCI fell 6.37 points or 0.4% to close at 1,748.3 points. Of significance was the steep drop in trading volumes, which hit a high of 6.01 billion shares on Monday.
