KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 8 (Bernama) -- Bursa Malaysia’s benchmark index closed lower on Thursday amid profit-taking in big-cap stocks, as investors shifted their focus to smaller-cap counters against the backdrop of weaker regional market performance. At 5 pm, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) fell 7.26 points or 0.43 per cent to 1,669.57 from Wednesday’s close of 1,676.83. The FBM KLCI opened 2.61 points lower at 1,674.22 and moved between 1,666.34 and 1,674.44 throughout the day. On the broader market, gainers led losers by 579 to 489, while 565 counters were unchanged, 1,016 untraded, and 12 suspended. Turnover was slightly higher at 2.79 billion units worth RM2.84 billion from Wednesday’s 2.73 billion units worth RM2.76 billion.
As we are entering the Chinese New Year season, let's look into what the Feng Shui master said about the overall market sentiment for the Water Dragon Year. Last year CLSA Feng Shui chart was not that accurate especially towards the end of the year, so we'll see what will happen this year. The Water Dragon is supposedly to be good for the stock market, it seems, but we will see what will happen. Anyway, the chart is just for reference and it is not for one to follow blindly.
