MSCI gets set to remove Indonesia from global indexes, sparks market slide to six-year low
MSCI said investors still see weak transparency and governance, and a standalone move could force funds to sell Indonesian holdings.
- On Friday, Asian stocks rebounded following Thursday's heavy selling, when investors dumped technology shares amid concerns about cloud company Nvidia-backed CoreWeave's debt pile.

- Indonesian stocks plunged more than 11% on Friday after index compiler New York-based MSCI announced plans to reclassify the country from 'Emerging Market' status.

- Capital markets analyst Kyle Rodda warned that global markets may face "a protracted period of this sort of volatility," with tech company earnings announcements due in the coming weeks.
