Today’s reversal in the JCI indicates that investors are back with confidence in the national economic prospects, after being hit by concerns this morning by the strengthening number of Covid-19 cases in India and Malaysia.
This concern is psychological, as indications of real recovery are displayed as can be seen from data on Indonesia’s manufacturing activity as reflected in the manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI), which touched new highs, while inflation was still benign.
In April 2021, Indonesia’s manufacturing PMI score was 54.6. It is an increase compared to the previous month which amounted to 53.2 and at the same time became the highest in the history of PMI records that began in April 2011.
In terms of inflation, it has also accelerated but is still benign. The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) reported that inflation in April 2021 was 0.13% compared to the previous month (month-to-month/ mtm) and 1.42% compared to April 2020 (year-on-year/yoy).
