KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit was lower against a rejuvenated US dollar early Friday, said a dealer.

​

At 9.23 am(0123gmt) Friday, the ringgit was quoted at 4.4220/4260 against the dollar from 4.4190/4220 at 6pm on Thursday.

​

The greenback rose on a combination of technical trading and strong first quarter US Gross Domestic Product data.

​

"The 4.42 level was tested again, as technically, the local unit was in a overbought position.

​

"Month-end commercial demand from exporters should support ringgit from weakening further," he added.

​

Against a basket of major currencies, the ringgit was traded almost higher.

​

The local note gained against the euro to 4.7236/7296 from 4.7442/7488 on Thursday and advanced against the Singapore dollar to 3.1629/1662 from Thursday's 3.1677/1703.

​

It appreciated against the yen to 3.9450/9497 from 3.9732/9763 on Thursday but declined against the British pound to 5.5204/5285 from 5.4959/5014 Thursday. - Bernama
