The KLCI was at 807.95, down from 859.11 after it closed last Friday.

But the stockmarket recovered slightly after lunch to regain some 24 points to end the day at 837.69.

The steep decline of KLCI to its lowest level in four years is due to similar fall in regional markets on concern over a severe global economic recession ahead.
