In this briefing:
1. XL Axiata Results Show a Strong Turnaround Underway in Indonesia
Xl Axiata’s (EXCL IJ) 4Q18 results triggered a very strong rally last week that continues this week. The market has been very concerned about competitive pressures in Indonesia and extremely low data prices. We believe that Indonesia is now past the worst and there is evidence that data pricing is starting to rise modestly. That is delivering a powerful tail wind for Indonesian telcos in 2019, with XL Axiata likely to report several very strong quarters.
XL Axiata now reporting strong sequential revenue growth (% QoQ)
