bourses were generally weak today as the HSI -0.60% fell from its 5 months high
weighed down by casino operators and developers, SHCOMP-0.66% also fell after

the local scene, profit taking was seen across the board as PLANTATION index
-0.40% led in losses weighed down by heavyweights, IOICORP -1.54%, FGV -0.46%,

levels. Market breadth was negative with losers beating gainers by 407 : 334.
