The Jakarta Composite Index (IHSG) strengthened by 46.22 points or 0.7% to 6,688.06 at the close of trading on Monday, January 16, 2023. This index increase occurred following the release of data showing a surplus in the national trade balance.
"Domestically, investors appreciated the performance of Indonesia's trade surplus in December 2022," said Senior Investment Information Mirae Asset Nafan Aji Gusta, as quoted by Antara, Monday (16/1/2023).
Statistics Indonesia (BPS) reported that Indonesia's trade balance had a surplus of US$54.46 billion throughout 2022, a 53.76% increase from the previous year. The surplus was supported by export performance reaching US$291.98 billion, higher than imports of US$237.52 billion.
Nafan also assessed that the IHSG's rise was also influenced by positive sentiment from the slowing US inflation in December 2022. Investors expect this to encourage the Fed to ease its monetary policy.
