Foreign investors returned to Bursa Malaysia last week, says MIDF
Foreign investors returned to Bursa Malaysia last week, purchasing RM10.2 million worth of domestic equities after two consecutive weeks of net selling. MIDF Research said it was a mixed trading week, with foreign inflows observed only last Tuesday (Oct 10) and Thursday. The top three sectors with net foreign inflows were utilities (RM221.5 million), technology (RM62.0 million) and industrial products and services (RM43.9 million).
Malaysia to continue growing as preferred data centre development destination — Fahmi
Malaysia's position as a preferred destination for data centre development is likely to continue growing, driven by the country’s strategic location, infrastructure, stability, and the government’s support, said Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil. As data continues to play an increasingly critical role in the digital age, he said the government’s support not only encourages foreign investments but also underscores the nation's commitment to fostering innovation and technological advancements.
