KUALA LUMPUR: PLUS Expressway Bhd's share price rose on Tuesday, Sept 21 after MIDF Research maintained its buy call and upped its target price for the stock to RM4.70 (from RM4.30).

MIDF Research said it continued to like PLUS as a strong defensive stock and its attractive dividend yields of 4% to 5%.
