Bursa Malaysia ended lower on Thursday, with the KLCI sliding 1.26% to 1,630.36 points. The mixed and cautious sentiment was driven by weaker domestic manufacturing activity and continued foreign selling. The S&P Global Malaysia Manufacturing PMI fell to 49.9 in September, marking the first decline in four months. Major counters such as Maybank, Public Bank, CIMB, Tenaga Nasional, and IHH Healthcare experienced declines, while Malaysian Pacific Industries, Ayer Holdings, and Riverview Rubber Estates were among the top gainers.
