Trump's economic regime could fuel inflation and disrupt trade flows
Global markets faced a turbulent week ending March 28, 2025, as 13 of 20 tracked indices declined amid anticipation of Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’ policies. Indonesia’s JCI (+4.03%), Singapore’s Straits Times (+1.17%), and India’s Sensex (+0.66%) led gains, while South Korea’s Kospi (-3.22%), Taiwan’s TAIEX (-2.73%), and the Nasdaq (-2.59%) saw the steepest drops.
Foreign investors shifted to a net inflow of USD93.8m globally, with India and Indonesia attracting funds, though most regions saw outflows. Bursa Malaysia recorded a 23rd week of foreign net selling at -RM1.15b. The US dollar rose 0.40% to RM4.4383 against the Ringgit, Brent crude oil climbed 2.04% to USD73.63 per barrel, and crude palm oil increased 1.01% to RM4,419.00 per tonne.
