The Jakarta Composite Index (IHSG) weakened by 0.63% to 7,200.15 at the close of trading on Thursday (28/11/2024).
Pilarmas Investindo Sekuritas assessed that the market appears to be anticipating a cautious approach by the United States Federal Reserve (the Fed) in cutting its benchmark interest rate.
This is in line with the release of US economic data showing 2.8% annual growth in the third quarter of 2024.
"This signals the strength of the US economy, leading the market to respond with a view that increasingly limits the Fed's room to lower interest rates next year," wrote Pilarmas Investindo Sekuritas in its analysis, as reported by *Katadata*, Thursday (28/11/2024).
