Leadership change could spur rally in Malaysia's market

Article Abstract:

Investors try to decide what Malaysian stocks are safe to invest in while the possibility of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad leaving his position increases. Some feel that politics are tightly knit with some companies in Malaysia, so it is safest to invest in the proven and less politically tied companies, while others feel there is a possibility that the next administration will operate with less of an involvement in business and it would be okay to invest in companies which have typically been avoided due to political ties.
