In the afternoon, central bank BNM released the foreign reserve as of 15 Oct at USD123.4bio (equivalent to RM520bio). This is sufficient to finance 4.8 months of retained imports and is 0.9 times short term external debit. Towards closing of the day, the softness on USD demand led the pair to slide lower and eventually close around 4.22 levels. On the US, relatively quiet trading day but key release will be the US CPI tonight. Starting 26 Oct, Sunday to 28 Oct Tuesday, Malaysia will be hosting the 47th Asean Summit in KL; key country leaders have confirmed their attendance including Chinese Premier Li Qiang and Trump.
