JCI Under Further Pressure After Lunch Break, Session II Opens Down Nearly 2.9 Percent at 5,925
Selling pressure on the domestic stock market intensified after the midday trading break. Entering the opening of Session II on Wednesday, 24 June 2026, the Jakarta Composite Index (JCI) continued its sharp decline, moving further away from the psychological level of 6,000.
Based on trading data from the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI), the JCI was hovering around 6,002 at the close of Session I. However, after trading resumed in Session II, pressure across nearly all sectors pushed the index deeper into the red.
At approximately 14:20 Western Indonesia Time (WIB), the JCI was recorded at 5,925.05, a drop of 2.89 percent compared to the previous closing position. The decline indicated that selling pressure had not subsided after the lunch break and instead increased during Session II.
The index’s movement throughout the day showed a consistent downward trend since the market opened. After initially opening above the 6,100 level, the JCI continued to fall until it breached the 6,000 level towards the end of the first session.
This condition continued into the second session. Instead of strengthening or seeing buying action when the market reopened, the index weakened further and touched its daily low around 5,925.
Selling Pressure Increases in Session II
Trading data showed the JCI’s decline deepened after trading activity resumed following the lunch break. The index’s position, which had previously held around the 6,000 level during Session I, could not be maintained.
The trading chart displayed a sharper decline after 14:00 WIB. The index’s position, which had been around 5,959, continued to weaken until it touched the 5,925 area.
This decline also widened the JCI’s daily correction from around 2.3 percent to nearly 3 percent.
Majority of Stock Indices Also Weaken
The weakness was not confined to the JCI. Several other major indices on the Indonesia Stock Exchange also moved into the red.
The LQ45 index was recorded down 2.66 percent. Meanwhile, the IDX30 weakened by 2.51 percent and the IDX80 corrected more deeply by 3.11 percent.
On the other hand, the IDXLQ45LCL index also experienced a decline of 2.58 percent. This condition indicates that selling pressure occurred broadly and was not concentrated on specific stocks.
