  1. Indonesian Stocks Plunge After MSCI Warns of Index Exclusion

    Indonesian stocks suffered their worst single day since 1998 following a warning from MSCI that the country may be excluded from its global stock market indexes. The potential removal threatens to isolate Indonesia from international capital and relegate the market to an investment backwater.

This rare threat suggests systemic issues that MSCI believes must be addressed to maintain global standards.
