The correction on the national stock exchange occurred following a combination of negative sentiment from within and outside the country that attacked the stock exchange simultaneously. Negative sentiment from within the country emerged from the discourse to reduce investment in stocks and mutual funds BPJS Ketenagakerjaan (BP Jamsostek).
It is known that BPJS is one of the giant institutional investors so that if the investment portion is dwarfed, there is a potential for a sizable outflow of money from the capital market.
President Director of BPJS Ketenagakerjaan Anggoro Eko Cahyo revealed the investment reduction plan at a joint hearing with the BPJS Employment Supervisory Board and Commission IX of the DPR. This step is carried out in the context of Asset Matching Liabilities (ALMA) Old Age Security (JHT). There are three strategies presented by BP Jamsostek.
“First, the investment strategy is to make changes from stocks and mutual funds to bonds and direct investment so that the weight of stock and mutual fund instruments is getting smaller,” said Anggoro, Tuesday (30/3/2021).
Meanwhile, the risk of capital flight (capital outflow) increasingly imagine selling pressure in line with the increase in yields (yield) United States (US) government bonds with a 10-year tenor rose to the highest position for 14 months, namely at the level of 1.7%.
