EMERGING MARKETS-Currencies gain ahead of U.S. jobs data, rupiah at 2-month high
* Graphic: World FX rates https://tmsnrt.rs/2RBWI5E * Won up 0.4%, sees best day in a week * China posts rapid trade growth in April * Lenders lift up Singapore stocks; OCBC doubles Q1 profit By Anushka Trivedi May 7 (Reuters) - Asian currencies gained against the dollar ahead of key U.S. jobs data on Friday, with the Indonesian rupiah hitting a two-month high, while stocks received a boost from China's upbeat economic report. The rupiah rose 0.5% and was headed for its best week since early November as the country's recent economic output data hinted at a mild recovery and as foreign investors returned to its high-yielding debt. Outflows, dividend repatriation pressure and concerns about Bank Indonesia's autonomy had seen the rupiah slump this year, but it recently found favour among yield-seekers as the Federal Reserve asserted a dovish stance.

Singapore's Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp more than doubled its quarterly profit on Friday as it handily beat market estimates thanks to a robust performance in its wealth management business and a drop in credit allowances. The results rounded up a strong showing by Singapore lenders DBS Group and United Overseas Bank in tandem with a recovering global economy that is helping boost bank earning across many countries.
