Ringgit closes higher ahead of OPR announcement tomorrow

KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit closed higher against the US dollar today ahead of the overnight policy rate (OPR) announcement tomorrow.

Bank Negara Malaysia’s monetary policy committee (MPC) is expected to maintain the OPR, according to market consensus.

Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd chief economist Afzanizam Abdul Rashid told Bernama the anticipation for no change in the OPR tomorrow seems to have contributed to the local currency’s strength.

Besides, he said the latest US ISM Manufacturing Index, which fell to 48.7 points in October from 49.1 in September, suggests business sentiments are still weak as a result of the higher import tariffs contributing to higher operating costs, weighing on the greenback.

At 6pm, the ringgit climbed to 4.1890/4.1925 against the US dollar from yesterday’s close of 4.1950/4.1985.

At the close, the ringgit traded higher against most major currencies.

It rose against the British pound to 5.4612/5.4658 from 5.4795/5.4841 at yesterday’s close, climbed versus the euro to 4.8106/4.8147 from 4.8238/4.8279, and was up against the yen to 2.7254/2.7279 from 2.7331/2.7355 previously.

The local note also traded higher against Asean currencies.

It strengthened against the Singapore dollar to 3.2055/3.2085 from 3.2131/3.2160 at yesterday’s close, and advanced vis-a-vis the Thai baht to 12.8730/12.8893 from 12.8859/12.9026 yesterday.

The ringgit was also slightly higher against the Indonesian rupiah at 250.5/250.9 from 251.0/251.4 and went up against the Philippine peso to 7.12/7.13 from 7.16/7.18 previously.

  3. Weekends at Richard’s casino feel different, and that’s largely thanks to the weekend reload bonus that runs
    every Saturday and Sunday. What makes these Richard casino free spin codes
    particularly attractive is the game variety. But hang on –
    there’s something even better for serious players.
    Look, I’ll be straight with you – these Richard casino bonus codes aren’t just
    marketing fluff. John is an expert online casino reviewer for RichardCasino, providing in-depth, honest evaluations.

    New players at Richard Casino are greeted with a generous welcome package
    of up to 5000€ plus 300 Free Spins.
    Without any initial outlay, you get to test several games, maybe win, and really experience what the casino
    has to offer. A no deposit bonus is a unique chance for new players
    to start playing without having to commit any money.

    With its amazing selection of bonuses and promotions, casino distinguishes itself from other online casinos.
    Whether you are a novice player or a seasoned gambler, the casino
    grants unique bonuses. However, they offer weekly bonuses to
    all active players, and you can also enjoy a loyalty program.
    No, unfortunately, Richard Casino does not have any no deposit bonus offer
    available to players from Australia.
    For example, if you search ‘Blackjack’ you’ll see all the games available.
    Table games are in the same situation as jackpot games
    — they are hard to find. We couldn’t find many progressive jackpot pokies,
    but we did find two popular jackpot games that we can recommend.
    There are some jackpot games available at Richard Casino, but they are quite well hidden.
