KUALA LUMPUR: Last-minute buying interest pushed the FBM KLCI sharply higher on Thursday as investors’ sentiment improved following the lower-than-expected US inflation data.

The benchmark index closed up 13.23 points, or 0.89% to 1,505.56, its highest in a week.

In the broader market, gainers outnumbered laggards 628-to-260; about 2.55 million shares changed hands in deals worth RM1.97bil.

All indices on Bursa Malaysia, except the Bursa Malaysia healthcare Index, closed higher.

Bursa Malaysia Healthcare Index fell 12.02 points or 0.72% to 1,650.59 points today.

The broadly upbeat mood comes as investors bet on the pace of interest rate hikes slowing after data pointed to inflation peaking.

“Investors are certainly in a more upbeat mood as the relief from the US inflation data ripples through the markets,” Craig Erlam, senior market analyst, UK & EMEA, Oanda said.

“Positive surprises have been hard to come by on the inflation front this year and yesterday's report was very much welcomed with open arms.

“While we shouldn't get too carried away by the data, with headline inflation still running at 8.5% and core 5.9%, it's certainly a start and one we've waited a long time for,” he said.
