周五早盘，KLCI指数暴跌24点，跌幅1.7%，至1439点，扭转了前一交易日4.5%的涨势。此前，白宫宣布对中国的关税已升至145%，华尔街周四出现抛售。美国和中国之间不断升级的贸易紧张局势加剧了人们对经济衰退的担忧。尽管存在波动，但在围绕关税的持续不确定性中，交易员继续讨价还价。大多数行业出现亏损，能源矿产下跌4.1%，其次是工业服务业（-2.1%）、生产者制造业（-1.8%）和金融业（-1.6%）。表现最差的是联昌国际控股公司（-4.8%）、马来亚银行（-2.2%）、丰隆银行（-1.7%）、吉隆坡Kepong（-1.6%）、马来西亚国家石油公司Dagangan（-1.7%。
The KLCI Index plunged 24 points, or 1.7%, to 1,439 in Friday morning trade, reversing a 4.5% surge in the previous session. This came after a sell-off on Wall Street on Thursday, following the White House's announcement that tariffs on China had risen to 145%. The escalating trade tensions between the US and China heightened recession fears. Despite the volatility, traders continued to bargain-hunt amid ongoing uncertainty surrounding the tariffs. Most sectors traded in the red, with energy minerals slumping 4.1%, followed by industrial services (-2.1%), producer manufacturing (-1.8%), and finance (-1.6%). Among the bottom performers were CIMB Holdings (-4.8%), Maybank (-2.2%), Hong Leong Bank (-1.7%), Kuala Lumpur Kepong (-1.6%), Petronas Dagangan (-1.7%), and Press Metal Aluminium Holdings (-1.6%).
