Ringgit firmer against US$ ahead of CPI data

KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit closed marginally higher against the US dollar on Thursday despite elevated crude oil prices and expectations of a possible US interest rate hike, as investors looked ahead to the release of US consumer price index (CPI) data on Friday.

At 6 pm, the local currency appreciated to 4.0630/0670 against the greenback from Wednesday’s close of 4.0670/0720.
