Malaysian economist Juwai IQI expects the ringgit to recover, citing higher oil prices, positive export and trade figures, and a weaker US dollar. The forecast is a range of 3.67 to 4.10 per dollar for 2021, with vaccination targets of 80% by mid-October.
Bank Negara Malaysia is cited as maintaining currency stability.
A stronger ringgit forecast would lower Malaysian import costs for dollar-priced feed ingredients, though the commentary is an outlook rather than a new market driver.
