NEWS

  • America : Wall Street closed mixed (S&P 500 +0.08%, Nasdaq +0.10%, Dow -0.18%) after initially coming under pressure from U.S.–Iran tensions, then recovering on hopes of a deadline extension and bargain hunting. Investors remain in a wait-and-see mode amid high uncertainty. The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield declined to 4.29% due to moderate safe-haven demand, with expectations of a Fed pause keeping movements limited.
  • Asia :  Asian markets strengthened (Nikkei 225 +0.03%, KOSPI +0.82%, China SSE +0.26%), led by the KOSPI on the back of a surge in AI chip stocks and selective buying. However, gains were capped by oil price volatility and ongoing U.S.–Iran tensions, keeping investors cautious. Markets remain focused on the technology sector and hopes of de-escalation, although geopolitical risks continue to linger.


MARKET UPDATE

  • The JCI declined 0.26% to 6,971, pressured by global uncertainty (including concerns over the potential reopening of the Strait of Hormuz), rising oil prices, rupiah depreciation, and foreign outflows. The lack of domestic catalysts led investors to take profits and focus on selective short-term trading, while also taking advantage of the dividend season.
  • Bond market: The 10-year government bond (SUN) yield rose to 6.66% due to selling pressure and higher risk premiums, driven by a widening fiscal deficit (0.93% of GDP in 1Q26), rupiah weakness, foreign outflows, and global risk-off sentiment. However, domestic demand helped limit further downside.
