Kenanga Investment Bank expects the ringgit to trade between RM4.04 and RM4.06 per US dollar next week as investors assess US inflation, Fed rate expectations and US-Iran diplomacy. The ringgit strengthened to RM4.047 from RM4.058, while lower Treasury yields, oil prices and US dollar positions weighed on the dollar.
A softer US dollar and lower yields can support the ringgit, while inflation data and Fed expectations may shift currency demand. The article describes a narrow expected range rather than a direct feed-cost or commodity-price change.
