IHSG Opens Down 0.45% This Morning

Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia — The Composite Stock Price Index (IHSG) opened weaker in trading on Thursday (2 April 2026).

According to trading data, the IHSG was recorded at the level of 7,152.06, down 32.38 points or -0.45% at the start of session I. The index briefly opened at 7,153.11 and moved within the range of 7,131.82 to 7,154.95.

A total of 211 stocks strengthened, 222 weakened, and 525 stocks moved stagnantly, indicating mixed market movements with selling pressure still dominating.

Today’s trading is the last of the week for the Indonesian financial markets. This is because Friday (3 April 2026) has been designated as a public holiday for Good Friday in the 2026 holiday calendar and stock exchange holiday schedule.

Several data points will serve as sentiment for the stock market. The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) reported that Indonesia’s inflation in March 2026 eased compared to the previous month. However, this period coincides with Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr, which typically drive increased consumer spending.

BPS recorded monthly inflation in March 2026 at 0.41%, while annual inflation was 3.48%. This annual inflation figure is down from February 2026, which reached 4.86%.

Although it eased compared to the previous month, March 2026 inflation is still much higher than the same period last year. In March 2025, Indonesia’s annual inflation was recorded at only 1.03%.
