The market opened 1.29 points better at 1,681.83 and moved between 1,681.36 and 1,690.94 throughout the day. This is because the country had just seen its January CPI data fell 0.7 per cent y-o-y, the first deflation since 2009. Meanwhile, the dealer said investors would also watch closely the 15th Invest Malaysia Capital Market forum to be held tomorrow and Wednesday, as any updates from the major event could give crucial direction to the industry participants.
Regionally, Singapore's Strait Times Index climbed 0.40 per cent to 3,212.96, Japan's Nikkei rose 0.62 per cent to 21,584.50 and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index jumped 1.37 per cent to 29,409.01.
