The market capitalisation reached Rp13,338 trillion. The composite index succeeded in turning the situation around and closing the first trading session of the week in the green zone. Although it opened weaker due to escalating tensions in the Middle East, the index ultimately strengthened by 0.46% to 7,493 by midday. The index movement in the first half of trading was dominated by positive movements in several shares of Barito Group conglomerates. Shares of PT Barito Pacific Tbk. (BRPT) led the strengthening with a 12.8% increase, followed by PT Petrindo Jaya Kreasi Tbk. (PTRO) which jumped 10.7%, and PT Barito Renewables Energy Tbk. (BREN) which appreciated 4.3%. Based on sectoral data, IDX Basic and IDX Energy became the two indices leading the strengthening in the first trading session today. Solid movements in both sectors were able to withstand the selling pressure that had emerged. However, a different situation was seen in the majority of Asian exchanges. Negative sentiment overshadowed the regional market following the failure of negotiations between the US and Iran, exacerbated by Donald Trump’s move to blockade the Strait of Hormuz. “The failure of US-Iran negotiations, followed by Donald Trump’s blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, once again became negative sentiment for Asian exchanges,” wrote a report from Mirae Asset Sekuritas.
