                    [Title] => Market eases on PLDT’s weaker first half income
                    [Summary] => 

Share prices closed 0.46 percent lower yesterday after Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (PLDT) reported a weaker first half net profit, dealers said. 


They said investors were also sidelined, awaiting signals from US monetary authorities, who will decide later in the day whether or not to end a two-year cycle of interest rate hikes.

The composite index ended down 10.88 points at the day’s low of 2,367.75. It touched a high of 2,382.19. The broader all-shares index retreated 3.49 points to 1,453.44.
