Bursar-No Ecstasy,Only Agony!

A no-hoper day. Most prices retreated on the close except for speculative stock JAKS and the pushing up of the Bursa bellwether stock. Very dull trading. CI moved sluggishly to 1357.33, showing a gain of a paltry 6.52 points. Gainers overwhelmed losers 639 to 222. Volume was at 1.47 billion worth RM1.478 billion. Gainers were led by super Bursa, up 90 sen. Digi followed with a 70 sen gain. KLK moved up 50 sen and Magna by a 48 sen gain. Losers were TM losing 20 sen, Widetec also 20 sen and Aeon and Boxpak by 15 sen each.

Portfolio was mixed with Genting losing another 10sen to RM7.55 sen. Resorts closed unchanged at RM3.74 while BJ Sports Toto upped 6 sen to RM4.98. KHSB and RCE both moved up 2.5 sen to 96 sen and 91 sen respectively. Meanwhile Metronic and Welli were unchanged at 17 sen and 89 sen.

All in all, one lousy trading day.
