The Jakarta Composite Index (IHSG) strengthened by 65.88 points or 0.98% to 6,796.92 at the close of trading on Tuesday (11/7/2023).
The strengthening of the stock index today was in line with the surge in shares in the healthcare sector. Healthcare sector stocks even soared 2.88%, the highest among the other 10 sectors.
The House of Representatives (DPR) has passed the Omnibus Law Draft Law (RUU) on Health into law in today's 29th plenary session.
The ratification of this regulation appears to have brought positive sentiment to issuers operating in the healthcare sector.
