Samuel Sekuritas analyst Lana Soelistianingsih said here Thursday investors' interest in risky assets was aroused by Bank of Japan's announcement of monetary stimulus which has boosted purchases of risky assets to 10 trillion yens.
Rupiah traded at 9,448 to the US dollar in inter-bank transactions today strengthening from the level of 9,540.
"Domestic sentiments are not strong. Rupiah strengthening was driven by external factors," Lana said.
The election for a new governor in Jakarta drew investors' attentions but it has no much effect, she said.
TrustSecurities analyst Reza Priyambada said the BoJ monetary stimulus gave positive sentiment but the market players are also worried by the effects of the tension between Japan and China over territorial dispute.(IGT)
