The ringgit opened slightly higher on November 29 at 4.2350/2395 per US dollar as the greenback retreated on concerns over the Omicron variant and new travel restrictions. A Bank Islam economist said the ringgit's selloff looked overdone, and a Hong Leong note said the dollar had risen for nine straight sessions the previous Friday.
A firmer ringgit slightly lowers the local cost of dollar-priced feed ingredients, though the effect is small on an opening move.
