KLCI closed lower at 9.22 points,
down 1824.32 points, by the end of the trading day. The local bourse
took a beating amid a global selloff trend, lead by Wall Street,
triggered by fears of a weakening global economy as the IMF
downgraded its global growth forecasts. Regionally, Asian markets
also slid in line with the global rout, as investors also weighed in
on a declining European economy and the timing of U.S. interest-rate
increases. Asset safe havens like bonds and the yen experienced
gains, as oil prices slip to the lowest in 2 years on oversupply.
