Profit Taking ahead of BI’s RDG Results. All benchmark series of Government Bonds (SUN) recorded higher yields, with FR0091 rising 4.5 bps to 7.96%. Investors’ profit taking, in the midst of waiting for the results of the Bank Indonesia Board of Governors’ Meeting (RDG BI) to release the BI Seven Days Reverse Repo Rate (BI 7DRRR) April Tuesday afternoon, is projected to stay at its lowest level of 3.50%.
