Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - The rupiah exchange rate ended the final\ntrading session of the week in a weakening zone against the United\nStates (US) dollar. According to Refinitiv data, at the close of trading\non Friday (10\/4\/2026), the rupiah closed at Rp17,085\/US$ or depreciated\nby 0.03%.<\/p>\n
However, at the opening of trading this morning, the rupiah initially\nstrengthened by 0.09% to the level of Rp17,065\/US$. This strengthening\ndid not last long, and the rupiah reversed to weaken until the end of\ntrading.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the US dollar index (DXY) at 3:00 PM WIB was recorded\nstrengthening by 0.32% to the level of 98.819.<\/p>\n
The weakening of the rupiah exchange rate against the greenback in\ntoday\u2019s trading was influenced by sentiments from both domestic and\ninternational sources.<\/p>\n
Currency analyst and Director of PT Laba Forexindo Berjangka, Ibrahim\nAssuaibi, assessed that externally, the current rupiah weakening is\nheavily influenced by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Plans\nfor a ceasefire agreement between the United States, Iran, and Israel\nare the key sentiment in the near term.<\/p>\n
\u201cToday, there is an agreement to be signed in Pakistan between the\nUnited States with Iran and Israel regarding a two-week ceasefire.\nWhether this succeeds or not depends on this. If it turns out to be\nsuccessful, with a signing for two weeks, the rupiah is likely to\nexperience strengthening,\u201d said Ibrahim to CNBC Indonesia, quoted on\nFriday (10\/4\/2026).<\/p>\n
Domestically, sentiment also comes from the results of Bank\nIndonesia\u2019s Consumer Survey for the March 2026 period.<\/p>\n
The results show that the Consumer Confidence Index (IKK) was\nrecorded to decline to the level of 122.9 from the previous 125.2.\nAlthough it declined, the current IKK condition remains in the\noptimistic zone because it is still above 100.<\/p>\n
The strong consumer confidence is supported by perceptions of the\ncurrent economic conditions as well as expectations for the next six\nmonths.<\/p>\n
\u201cBank Indonesia\u2019s Consumer Survey in March 2026 indicates that\nconsumer confidence in economic conditions remains strong. This is\nreflected in the March 2026 Consumer Confidence Index (IKK) which is at\nan optimistic level (index >100) of 122.9,\u201d wrote Bank Indonesia in\nits statement on Friday (10\/4\/2026).<\/p>\n
In addition, the Current Economic Condition Index (IKE) and Consumer\nExpectations Index (IEK) also remained at optimistic levels, at 115.4\nand 130.4 respectively. This condition shows that households still have\nsufficient confidence in the national economic situation, even as global\nfinancial markets are overshadowed by uncertainty.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/rupiah-weakens-us-dollar-exchange-rate-rises-to-rp17-085-1775811056", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
