Mild window dressing for key FBM KLCI stocks sent the 30-stock up nearly seven points in mid-morning Monday for the first quarter ending March 31.

However, BIMB Securities Research expects investors to be on the sidelines with some downtrend bias. It expects the KLCI to trend between the 1,810 and 1,815 range.
