The Jakarta Composite Index (IHSG) closed down 21.53 points, or 0.32%, to 6,771.24 on Monday, April 10, 2023.
This decline occurred despite a rise in the country's foreign exchange reserves. Bank Indonesia (BI) reported today that foreign exchange reserves reached USD 145.2 billion in March 2023, up from USD 140.3 billion at the end of February 2023.
These reserves are equivalent to 6.4 months of import cover, or 6.2 months of import and government foreign debt payments, exceeding the international adequacy standard of around three months of import cover.
BI Executive Director for Communication, Erwin Haryono, stated that the increase in foreign exchange reserves was influenced by tax revenue and government foreign loan withdrawals.

A total of 18.21 billion shares changed hands, with a transaction value of Rp 7.47 trillion.
