The ringgit extended its
uptrend against the US dollar on the first day of the second half of the

At 9.03am, the ringgit was
higher at 3.9900/9950 against the greenback from yesterday’s closing of
4.0280/0350.

The global benchmark Brent
crude, which was trading at US$50.04 per barrel at 0026 GMT (8.28am), up
33 cents from its previous settlement, also helped to support the local
note.
