The global forecast for the Asian markets is positive, thanks mainly to upbeat economic news from the United States. The European and U.S. markets ended firmly higher, and the Asian bourses are expected to follow that lead.
The JCI finished slightly lower again on Thursday as the resources tocks and financials ended mostly in the red.
For the day, the index fell 6.13 points or 0.12 percent to finish at 5,262.72 after trading between 5,253.45 and 5,266.99. Volume was 3.97 billion shares worth 4.29 trillion rupiah. There were 155 decliners and 140 gainers.

The support was partly attributed to comments Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen reportedly made to a group of Senate Democrats at a private luncheon. While Yellen told the lawmakers the U.S. economy is strong, she expressed some concerns about the situation in Europe - easing concerns about the outlook forinterest rates.
Positive sentiment may also have been generated by a report from the Labor Department showing that initial jobless claims fell to a fourteen-year low in the week ended January 24.
And a separate report released by the National Association of Realtors unexpectedly showed a sharp drop in U.S. pending home sales in December.
