Ringgit Soars on Eased Oil Prices
The Malaysian ringgit opened higher against the US dollar due to improved market sentiment following easing Middle East oil supply concerns.
This shift in market attention is expected to be short-lived, as investors await the Bank of Japan's monetary policy decision, where a rate hike is anticipated. A more hawkish stance from the Bank of Japan could increase foreign exchange market volatility and keep the ringgit within a narrow range.
