Although this week is shorter, investor attention remains focused on various important global and domestic agendas.

From developments in money supply, US consumer sentiment data, the release of US import and export prices, to initial US unemployment claims, which will provide the latest picture of the Uncle Sam’s labour market conditions.

This series of sentiments is expected to act as a catalyst for market drivers, from stocks and the rupiah exchange rate to commodity prices throughout this week’s trading.

Meanwhile, global oil prices came under pressure again in Wednesday morning trading (25/3/2026), with a decline approaching 5% as market concerns over supply disruptions from the Middle East eased.

According to Reuters, this decline was triggered by rising expectations of a ceasefire between the United States and Iran. The US government is reported to have sent a 15-point peace proposal to end the conflict that has long disrupted global energy distribution.

Nissan Securities Investment analyst Hiroyuki Kikukawa stated that the market is starting to take profit-taking actions after prices had surged. Expectations of easing conflict are encouraging market participants to reduce positions, although the direction of negotiations remains uncertain.
