Yesterday, the JCI rose 39.47 points to the level of 5,132.57 although it was weak at the beginning of the trading session due to negative sentiment from the continuing demonstrations of demonstrators regarding the Job Creation Bill. Financial sector stocks still managed to gain 1.80%. This is due to optimism after Bank Indonesia held its benchmark interest rate at 4%.
This decision takes into account the need to maintain rupiah exchange rate stability amid low inflation. Bank Indonesia sees that the domestic recovery is improving, mainly driven by fiscal stimulus and exports. Export activity has also improved on the back of continued global demand, particularly the US and China, for steel, pulp and paper and textile products. Foreign investors recorded a net sell of IDR 55.69 billion.
The majority of Asian bourses closed positive yesterday. Nikkei Index rose 0.18%, TOPIX rose 0.35%, HangSeng 2.20% and CSI300 rose 0.33%, accompanying investor optimism about rising stocks in Hong Kong and the PBOC’s aggressive steps to maintain export activity.
European bourses opened trading weaker as investors weighed a potential setback on progress towards a Covid-19 virus vaccine ahead of a busy period for corporate earnings.
Oil prices have fluctuated after slumping with workers in the US Gulf returning after the Hurricane Delta landings and Libya taking big steps to reopen its biggest fields. Furthermore, the driving force is still related to the prospect of stimulus in the US which has reached a dead end.
