Foreign Investors Net Sell Shares Worth Rp96.72 Trillion, JCI Under Pressure
Published
Foreign investors recorded net sales of Indonesian shares amounting to Rp96.72 trillion from the start of 2026 through October 26. This figure adds pressure to the Indonesian stock market and has drawn the attention of market players.
Economist Anthony Budiawan highlighted this condition. According to him, the large outflow of foreign capital is also weighing on the movement of the Jakarta Composite Index (IHSG). He also discussed the threat of a change in Indonesia's status in the MSCI index. MSCI is a global stock index provider whose indices are widely used as benchmarks by international investors in determining their portfolios.
A change in status in the MSCI index could affect foreign investors' decisions. If that status changes, some institutional investors typically need to adjust their share holdings. Therefore, this issue has become one of the matters being watched by capital market players.
So far, pressure on the IHSG remains a major concern in Indonesia's financial market. Investors and the public need to keep following developments in foreign capital flows and decisions from global index providers in order to better understand the condition of the stock market.
