By 6 pm, the ringgit dropped to 4.0840/0880 against the greenback, down from Wednesday’s closing rate of 4.0780/0825. Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd chief economist Dr Mohd Afzanizam Abdul Rashid highlighted the ringgit's volatile trading pattern concerning the US dollar, which fluctuated between RM4.0940 in the morning and RM4.0793 in the afternoon. Dr Rashid pointed out that despite the US dollar's strength, maintaining the US Dollar Index (DXY) at approximately 101 points, the ringgit demonstrated resilience. At the day's close, the ringgit outperformed a basket of major currencies, including the euro, British pound, Japanese yen, Singapore dollar, Thai baht, Indonesian rupiah, and Philippine peso.",
