Selective buying of defensive stocks lifts Bursa Malaysia higher at close The Star

Market Impact

Reporting by The Star forms the basis of this account, which remains open as the story develops.

Attention centres on Bursa Malaysia as the situation develops.

Traders will weigh the development alongside the index's recent range and the commodity complex driving it.

It falls under the desk's finance beat, tracking the institutions and policy decisions that move the domestic economy.

Rather than pad a thin source, the newsroom publishes what is verified and returns to the story as more is established.
