  "summary": "Bursa Malaysia opened higher on Monday, buoyed by resilient domestic demand, according to an analyst at Apex Securities Bhd. The FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI index edged up 1.46 points to 1,737.94, while market breadth was positive with more gainers than losers. However, trading is expected to remain cautious due to selective investor behavior and the impact of external uncertainties such as elevated US Treasury yields and Middle East tensions. Among the heavyweights, Maybank, Public Bank, CIMB Group, and Tenaga Nasional showed gains, while IHH Healthcare fell.",
