US Dollar Rupiah and Indonesian Bombing
The bombing triggered a brief flight to safety into the dollar and the yen in Asian trading. The Indonesian rupiah weakened 0.5 percent to 10,175 per dollar, after dropping as much as 1 percent, the most since June 23 as bombs exploded at the Ritz Carlton and the JW Marriott hotels in the Jakarta, killing eight people and injuring at least 53 others.
The rupiah then pared its losses, trading at 10,163. The Bank of Indonesia may “have intervened” in the currency markets today to limit its losses, currency strategists at Credit Suisse Group AG said in a report today.

Niceupdated article. Well, such an impact of Bombing…nice post
At least this is not as bad as Zimbabwe. Over there a week’s wages one week is not enough to ride the bus to work the next
Wages as low as that ! Horse riding could be the alternative means of transport.
It looks like all the bombings around the globe are having an destabling effect on the indiviual countries econommy. I wonder if the Majorca bombings (today) will affect the islands tourist trade and inturn the Spanish economy.

I must say I never considered the effect of the Rupiah on Forex markets. With the world becoming more open and more and more countries involved in world trade it makes sense to keep an eye on the currencies and current events of places like Indonesia.
I’m a little confused: what bombing?
Hope the Rupiah get stable soon. I am worry, because the politic situation in Indonesia is not good today.
Very informative, many will benefit from this.

Yes thet´s right!
But it´s logical.
Such terror activities are a unknown factor in the countries economy.
Same happened with India once i remember.
