Indonesia's benchmark index fell to its lowest close in almost one week while Southeast Asian stocks ended mostly flat on Tuesday, with Asian stock markets weaker ahead of the US Federal Reserve's two-day policy-setting meeting. Large-caps such as Bank Rakyat Indonesia and Tenaga Nasional led decliners in Indonesia and Malaysia respectively, amid foreign fund outflows.
Foreign investors withdrew a net $23.07 million worth of Indonesian shares after Monday's net purchase of $4.6 million, Thomson Reuters data showed. The Malaysian bourse reported net foreign selling of 115 million ringgit ($36.68 million), a sixth straight session of sales.
