2012.07.03 04:33:18 MARKET TALK: USD/MYR Steady; 3.1600 Support Tipped

0233 GMT [Dow Jones] The USD/MYR is holding steady at 3.1620 in Asia
after gaining slightly following downbeat U.S economic data but
participants are range-trading ahead of the ECB's policy meeting
Thursday. Dealers say the pair is tracking other Asian currencies in
recovering some of its falls after the EU summit last week. "Being a
laggard, there's downward pressure on the USD/MYR since the EU summit,
but volume is thin as most players are just sticking to the sidelines
for the ECB meeting," says a local dealer. He tips the pair to
consolidate near 3.1600 support for now. (jason.ng@dowjones.com)
