DJIA fell by -0.94% on Thursday (22/04) followed by S&P 500 (-0.92%) and Nasdaq (-0.94%). Wall Street fell sharply while President Biden is considering a major capital gains tax hike. The wave of bullish corporate earnings was shadowed by a hike on global Covid-19 cases which tapered expectations over a faster reopening. On the other hand, improving economic data, particularly in the labor market, continues to reflect the success of the vaccine rollout, in which 17.5 million people filed for unemployment insurance, down 39,000 from the prior week's. Moreover, the market will look forward to several data releases today, such as: 1) US Markit Manufacturing PMI Flash; 2) US New Home Sales; 3) Japan Inflation Rate.

IHSG Updates
JCI was flat by +0.02% to 5,994.18 on Thursday (22/04) followed by net foreign sell reaching IDR145.36 billion. JCI managed to slightly increase, supported by the significant rise on miscellaneous industry, followed by infra, mining and finance sectors while the rest of the sectors fell. It seems that the optimism from Wall Street is not enough to boost the increase on JCI as concerns lingered on the increased Covid-19 cases in India. Meanwhile, the Rupiah exchange rate was strengthening at Rp14,520. We estimate JCI will move in the range of 5,927-6,040 while waiting for the motorbike sales data release. Today's recommendation: ICBP, MEDC, BBTN, DSNG.
