"Positive view given by Standard & Poors (S&P) on Indonesian economic outlook was one of the drivers of the JCI," Head of Research of Valbury Asia Securities Alfiansyah said.
He said the market optimism of the countrys economy would rise with S&P changing the rating of the Indonesia debts to positive from stable with a fixed rate of BB+ (double B plus).
"The rating given by S&P constituted a recognition of the Indonesian economic resilience as a result of policy coordination adopted by the economic authorities," he said.
The positive prospect indicated that the Indonesian debt rating could rise further in 12 months if the government reached the objective goal in increasing the spending quality of the government.
