In June, Bank Jabar said it would buy a majority stake in 51 rural banks this year in a bid to tap the huge potential of small and micro businesses.

"While we are disappointed by the extent of our downgrades, we believe our current estimates are now quite conservative, and yet still imply attractive multiples given IMAS's long term growth outlook," analyst Lyall Taylor said in a note on Thursday. The research house, however, kept its 'outperform' rating on the car maker's stock, saying it has moved into oversold territory. While average sales of the Evalia model at 2,000 units per month have been below expectations, and Nissan's overall market share in September was relatively weak at 5.7 percent, the new model still made a solid contribution to Nissan's nine-month sales at 38.8 percent year on year. Shares of the auto producer were down 0.93 percent at 5,350 rupiah while the broader index was up 0.16 percent. 1018 (0318 GMT) (Reporting by Andjarsari Paramaditha in Jakarta; Editing by Sunil Nair) *************************************************************** 10:02 STOCKS NEWS INDONESIA-Exploitasi Energi surges on stake sale Shares in PT Exploitasi Energi Indonesia Tbk jumped as much as 10.45 percent on Thursday after the coal miner said it will sell at least $50 million worth of stake.
