Ahead of the Good Friday holiday, the Indonesia stock market had turned lower again, one day after ending the four-day losing streak in which it had tumbled more than 240 points or 3.5 percent. The Jakarta Composite Index now sits just above the 7,025-point plateau and it may see a technical rebound on Monday.
