KUALA LUMPUR, April 5 (Bernama) -- The FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) futures contract on Bursa Malaysia Derivatives is expected to trade in line with the underlying cash market next week.

The cash market is likely to remain in a cautious trading mode, even though investors are expected to have already absorbed the impact of the US tariffs.

Turnover was significantly lower at 25,964 lots this week from 207,315 lots in the previous week, while open interest narrowed to 44,881 contracts from 59,411 contracts previously.

On a Friday-to-Friday basis, the key index declined 9.51 points to 1,504.14 from 1,513.65 a week earlier.

Bursa Malaysia and its subsidiaries were closed on Monday and Tuesday (March 31 and April 1) in conjunction with the Hari Raya Aidilfitri public holidays.
