MARKET PULSE AM JULY 9, 2025 [WATCH]
KUALA LUMPUR: News on the latest moves on the stock and crypto markets. Bursa Malaysia opened higher on Wednesday, snapping a two-day losing streak and mirroring gains across regional markets. However, the local market remained under pressure, with the key index closing just above the 1,530 level yesterday. The selling was likely driven by foreign funds, which have been reducing their holdings since Monday ahead of today's tariff deal expiry. The FBM KLCI is expected to stay within the 1,520 to 1,530 range. In the crypto market, Bitcoin climbed to RM459,846 amid US trade optimism. Ethereum rose to RM11,059, while Solana was up at RM641. That's it for Market Pulse.

MARKET PULSE AM JULY 4, 2025 [WATCH]
KUALA LUMPUR: News on the latest moves on the stock and crypto markets. Bursa Malaysia opened slightly higher on Friday, rebounding from the previous day's losses as renewed buying interest in selected heavyweights offset mixed sentiment across regional markets. The benchmark index dipped just below the 1,550 mark yesterday, likely due to profit-taking activities. However, strong support was evident around this level, backed by a surge in trading volume that exceeded five billion shares. As such, the FBM KLCI is expected to hover within the range of 1,545 to 1,555 points today. In the crypto market, Bitcoin climbed to RM459,420. Ethereum rose to RM10,886, while Solana was up at RM640. That's it for Market Pulse.

MARKET PULSE PM JULY 3, 2025 [WATCH]
KUALA LUMPUR: News on stock, crypto and ringgit moves. Bursa Malaysia closed lower today, ending a five-day rally, as profit-taking and cautious sentiment outweighed broader market gains. The benchmark index was dragged down by mixed performances among blue chips, amid ongoing export concerns and trade volatility. Broader segments of the market, however, remained resilient, supported by steady investor interest beyond blue-chip counters. Meanwhile, the ringgit strengthened against the greenback today to 4.2170. In the crypto market, Bitcoin rose to RM459,844 on signs of improving US trade relations. Ethereum climbed to RM10,892, while Solana was up at RM652. That's it for Market Pulse.

'I made a fool of myself': Malaysian woman trying to buy G-Dragon concert tickets accidentally buys ones for Kenny G , Entertainment News
Here's a reminder to double-check your purchases. A Malaysian woman who wanted to watch G-Dragon in concert accidentally bought tickets for American saxophonist Kenny G instead, taking to Xiaohongshu to share her (frankly hilarious) story. Maybe she got overexcited and only saw the capital letter the two musicians share in common. "I thought I was lucky! I got in (to the ticketing page), picked my seat and paid!" wrote the netizen going by the name Piann Lee. "But when I received my confirmation email, I found out I had bought tickets for Kenny G, not G-Dragon. "I made a fool of myself!" Two tickets for the (wrong) concert on July 13 at Genting cost her RM875 (S$266). On the other hand, BigBang star G-Dragon, 38, is bringing his Ubermensch Tour to Kuala Lumpur on June 19 and 20, with tickets starting from RM459. Netizens were tickled, making jokes about "Kenny G-Dragon" and saying that the 68-year-old woodwind virtuoso may see her in the audience and wonder why she's so enthusiastic with a lightstick, as is customary for K-pop fans. One netizen also felt a sense of schadenfreude (joy at someone else's misfortune), as they were also unable to get tickets to watch G-Dragon. Piann was also asked whether she would be selling the tickets, but said she has decided against it. "I initially planned to attend the G-Dragon concert with my colleague since my husband isn't interested in G-Dragon," she wrote. "Now that I've bought Kenny G tickets, I'll go and watch his concert with my husband. "I'm very happy nevertheless because my husband is interested (in the latter)." Sounds like it's going to be a date! Kenny G performs in Singapore on July 8. G-Dragon is coming for the Formula One Singapore Grand Prix on Oct 3. drimac@
