JCI Opens Lower Today at 7,001.56

JAKARTA – The Composite Stock Price Index (JCI) opened weaker in trading on Monday (6/4/2026). According to data from the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI), the JCI opened at the level of 7,001.56, down 0.36 percent from the previous close.

In the early session, the index briefly touched a high of 7,008.95 and a low of 6,935.35.

Trading volume was recorded at 3.597 billion shares with a transaction value of Rp2.966 trillion and a frequency of 222,500 times. A total of 414 stocks were recorded as declining, 184 stocks strengthening, and 360 stocks stagnant.

The KOMPAS100 weakened by 13.03 points or 1.34 percent to 957.93, while the ISSI fell by 3.16 points or 1.26 percent to 248.02. The IDX30 only corrected slightly by 0.28 points or 0.07 percent to 388.36, and the JII70 dropped by 2.71 points or 1.49 percent to 179.75.

With a market capitalisation of Rp12,066 trillion, selling pressure still dominated the early trading of this week. Market participants appear to be monitoring exchange rate movements and foreign capital flows amid global uncertainties.

Capital Market Analyst and Founder of Republik Investor, Hendra Wardana, assessed that the current global market conditions are in an unideal phase.

In such situations, market participants tend to take defensive steps by reducing exposure to risky assets, including stocks in emerging markets like Indonesia.

“This is what explains why the JCI corrected quite deeply, dropping 2.19 percent to the level of 7,026 (at the close of trading on Thursday this week), in line with the weakening of most Asian and European exchanges,” Hendra told Kompas.com on Sunday (5/4/2026).

The continued weakening in Monday’s trading (6/4/2026) indicates that the negative sentiment is still overshadowing the JCI’s movements, although with varying correction levels in each sectoral index.
