KUALA LUMPUR -- Investors have seemingly adjusted to the surprise victory of Mahathir Mohamad's opposition coalition in last week's lower house election in Malaysia. Markets saw little movement in the aftermath of the vote, yet many remain cautious ahead of what is likely to be a complicated transition period.
The country's benchmark Kuala Lumpur Composite Index closed down 0.1% on Tuesday as the expected market turbulence failed to materialize.
