`Doomsday Scenario' PT Bumi Resources, Asia's biggest exporter of power-station coal, gained 6.6 percent to 1,620 rupiah after saying first- quarter profit rose 21 percent.
"The doomsday scenario is diminishing by the day," said Tim Schroeders, who helps manage $1 billion at Pengana Capital Ltd. "The data has become more mixed, and day-by-day people are becoming more relaxed about the outlook. But it's still too early to say we've reached a clearly defined turning point."
