The rising trend of the ringgit is unstoppable, with another surge of over 1.7% today, breaking through the 4.50 level. The entire week saw a rise of 3.6%!
As of 5 p.m., the exchange rate of the ringgit was 4.4908 to the US dollar, with a daily increase of 1.72%. This is another important level that the ringgit has surpassed within 3 days after breaking through the 4.60 level on Wednesday, July 31.
