Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives (DPR), Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, suddenly visited the Indonesia Stock Exchange Building (BEI). He was accompanied by the Chairman of the Financial Services Authority (OJK), Friderica Widyasari Dewi, Danantara’s CEO Rosan Roeslani, and Danantara’s COO Dony Oskaria. Also seen was BEI Director I Gede Nyoman Yetna, accompanying the officials who arrived. Meanwhile, the Jakarta Composite Index (IHSG) fell by 2% or 136.33 points to 6,462.91 at 11:11 WIB on Tuesday, 19 May 2026. A total of 454 stocks declined, 212 rose, and 293 were unchanged. Transaction value reached Rp 10.61 trillion, involving 17.34 billion shares in 1.26 million trades. Market capitalization also shrank to Rp 11,261 trillion. Earlier this morning the IHSG moved with high volatility. It opened down 0.5% and briefly touched the green zone. The IHSG also tumbled as the rupiah’s weakness against the US dollar deepened in trading on Tuesday, with the rupiah breaching a new psychological level. According to Refinitiv data, at 09:13 WIB, the rupiah weakened 0.34% to Rp17,700/USD. The depreciation continued after the rupiah had opened weaker at the start of trading. At the morning’s opening, the rupiah stood at Rp17,650/USD or down 0.06%. Meanwhile, in yesterday’s trade, the IHSG opened down 94.34 points or 1.40% to 6,447.97. But two minutes after the market opened the IHSG fell further to 2.59%, and 60 minutes later the IHSG plunged 4.3% to 6,428. The biggest pressure on the IHSG since the end of last week came from stocks that were removed from the MSCI Global Standard Index and the MSCI Global Small Cap Index. MSCI officially removed six Indonesian stocks from the MSCI Global Standard Index, namely: PT Amman Mineral Internasional Tbk (AMMN); PT Barito Renewables Energy Tbk (BREN); PT Chandra Asri Pacific Tbk (TPIA); PT Dian Swastatika Sentosa Tbk (DSSA); PT Petrindo Jaya Kreasi Tbk (CUAN); PT Sumber Alfaria Trijaya Tbk (AMRT). In addition, MSCI also dropped 13 Indonesian stocks from the MSCI Global Small Cap Index. Shortly after the MSCI announcement, other global index provider FTSE also weighed in on the future of Indonesian shares included in its index. In FTSE’s latest announcement titled “Index Treatment for the June 2026 Index Review”, released on Wednesday (13/5/2026), FTSE signalled a hard line regarding the potential delisting of stocks with high ownership concentration (HSC) at the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI).
