India, Aug. 10 -- The Indonesia stock market has finished lower in two of three trading days since the end of the two-day winning streak in which it had collected more than 80 points or 1.3 percent. The Jakarta Composite Index now rests just above the 6,365-point plateau and it may extend its losses on Tuesday.
