        "summary": "Renowned Indonesian investor Lo Kheng Hong views the ongoing sell-off by foreign investors in the stock market as the ideal opportunity for domestic investors to accumulate shares in fundamentally strong companies at discounted prices. He advises against panic selling or cutting losses during market downturns, instead recommending buying quality stocks in sectors like banking and commodities, particularly coal and palm oil, to capitalise on long-term gains. This strategy comes amid a year-to-date decline in the Composite Stock Price Index (IHSG) of 17.88%, with foreign net selling reaching Rp48.38 trillion.",
