MARKET PULSE AM JUNE 20, 2025 [WATCH]
KUALA LUMPUR: News on the latest moves on the stock and crypto markets.
Bursa Malaysia opened slightly lower today, weighed down by a lack of fresh catalysts and the closure of Wall Street overnight.
Wall Street was shut for a holiday, with traders closely watching whether the United States will align with Israel in the coming weeks.
Back home, the FBM KLCI closed just above the 1,500 mark, as foreign selling pressure is expected to persist.
Analysts suggest buying blue-chip stocks if the index drops below the 1,500 mark, especially near the 1,480 level.
In the crypto market, Bitcoin slipped to RM445,413.
Ethereum declined to RM10,732, while Solana dropped to RM621.
That's it for Market Pulse.
