The local bourse ended slightly higher on Thursday, with sentiment buoyed by strong global markets but tempered by uncertainty in the wake of Typhoon Glenda and the corruption scandal surrounding the Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP).

The Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) closed up 0.49 percent or 33.32 points at 6,867.26. The broader All Shares index also finished higher, gaining 11.97 points or 0.29 percent to 4,112.58.
