IHSG Updates
JCI strengthened by +0.12% to 6,691.34 on Thursday (11/11) followed by net foreign buy reaching IDR245.93 billion. JCI closed higher along with the strengthening in almost all sectors led by the transportation sector (+2.19%), followed by the non-cyclical consumer sector (+1.64%). On the other hand, the tech sector weakened by -1.81%, followed by the infrastructure sector (-0.89%). The strengthening of the JCI tends to be limited by the lack of domestic sentiment. Meanwhile, negative sentiment came from the release of US CPI data which showed an increase in inflation of 6.2% YoY in October-21, raising market expectations that the Fed will accelerate the rate hike. On the other hand, the Rupiah weakened at IDR14,253 level in the spot market. We estimate the JCI will move in the range of 6,650-6,7500. Today's recommendations: HOKI, ERAA, IMJS, INDY.
