Domestic Update
• Government has successfully raised IDR34 trillion for the budget financing program in debt securities auction yesterday (08/02/21). There were 7 series of debt securities auctioned including among others SPN12211104 (reopening), SPN12220527 (reopening), FR0090 (reopening), FR0091 (reopening), FR0088 (reopening), FR0092 (reopening) and FR0089 (reopening). MNCS Comment: Total incoming bids were IDR107.78 trillion while amounts awarded were IDR34 trillion or IDR1 trillion higher than the indicative target already set. The success was in line with our expectations. High investors for fixed income assets in our view was attributable to : 1) ample liquidity in the financial system; 2) investor preference towards safer assets as well as 3) low external pressure as 10 year U.S. treasury yield continued its downtrend while rupiah strengthened against USD.
• Furthermore, there was an addition of 1,601 new Covid-19 cases in Jakarta yesterday.

IHSG Updates
JCI rose by +0.56% to 6,130.57 on Tuesday (03/08) followed by net foreign sell reaching IDR126.90 billion. JCI closing was higher along with most sectors led by the transport sector (+1.68%) followed by industrial (+1.36%). On the other hand, the energy sector slipped by -0.40%, followed by property (-0.28%). JCI closing was higher due to markets no longer worried about the pandemic even though the government extended the implementation of PPKM Level 4 policy until August 9, 2021. In the last week, the average daily additional positive cases was 38,295 per day, or declined to the last two weeks at 40,429 cases per day. The downward trend made the market more optimistic that the pandemic was well handled. Meanwhile the Rupiah exchange rate was strengthening at IDR14,342. We estimate the JCI will move in the range of 6,050-6,166 while waiting for GDP growth YoY. Today's recommendation: PNBS, INDF, CPIN, BRMS.
