  "account": "Bursa Malaysia experienced a rise in trading activity on Monday, driven by renewed interest in banking and telecommunications stocks, according to an analyst. The major regional indices ended the previous trading session mixed, with technology stocks holding their ground due to optimism surrounding artificial intelligence. Beijing's announcement of a 360 billion yuan investment into state-owned banks and insurers, including 300 billion yuan through special Treasury bonds, provided a boost to sentiment in China. However, analysts cautioned that elevated crude oil prices and a rise in the US 10-year Treasury yield could maintain global inflationary pressures and hinder risk appetite. Despite these concerns, the local bourse is expected to remain range-bound in the short term as investors weigh positive domestic factors against external uncertainties. The FBM KLCI is anticipated to trade within the 1,700-1,730 range this week.",
