The ringgit closed higher against the US dollar on Monday, September 29, as concerns over a possible US government shutdown weighed on the greenback. Traders noted that a shutdown could limit federal services and expected a funding deal before the October 1 fiscal year start.
The ringgit was mixed to lower against a basket of major currencies at the close.
A firmer ringgit lowers the ringgit cost of dollar-priced imports such as feed ingredients and raises the ringgit value of palm oil exports, which can ease local feed costs. The move is driven by US fiscal and Fed-rate expectations rather than a change in commodity supply.
