(Photo: Reuters)SINGAPORE - Indonesian stocks slid on Monday after ​a tumultuous week during which a warning from MSCI over transparency concerns triggered an $80 billion market rout and the country's top financial regulators resigned. The benchmark Jakarta Composite Index fell over 4% in early trading after sliding nearly 7% last week, its steepest drop in a year. Indonesian stocks recouped some losses ‌on Friday after the government rolled out a slew of measures to allay some of index provider MSCI's concerns. The Indonesian rupiah has been stuck near a record low of 16,985 per US dollar, which it touched in January.
