Flooring Guide by Cinvex – Trading activities on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) are scheduled to resume on Monday, May 4, 2026. The exchange will observe a public holiday on Friday, May 1, 2026, in commemoration of International Workers’ Day, leading to a brief pause in market operations.
Market Recap: The IDX’s Positive Performance in 2025
Leading up to the holiday, the Jakarta Composite Index (JCI) opened lower at 7,039.67 on Thursday, April 30, 2026. This downturn was largely attributed to profit-taking and corrections among several major capitalized stocks, including DSSA, BYAN, and TPIA.
According to official data from the IDX, the JCI declined by 0.87%, or 61.55 points, closing at 7,039.67. During the trading session, the index fluctuated between a low of 7,022.37 and a high of 7,109.00.
Market Breadth and Key Movers
Market breadth remained under pressure as 405 stocks ended the day in the red, while 194 stocks advanced and 124 remained stagnant. Despite the downward pressure, the total market capitalization stood at Rp12,563.35 trillion.
Among the heavyweights dragging the index down, PT Dian Swastatika Sentosa Tbk. (DSSA) fell 3.20% to Rp1,665, and PT Bayan Resources Tbk. (BYAN) dropped 2.17% to Rp11,250. Other notable laggards included PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk. (UNVR), which slipped 1.90%, PT Chandra Asri Pacific Tbk. (TPIA) with a 1.90% decline, and PT Bank Central Asia Tbk. (BBCA), which weakened by 1.67%.
Conversely, some stocks defied the bearish trend. PT Prasidha Aneka Niaga Tbk. (PSDN) emerged as a top gainer with a 29.90% surge to Rp252, followed by PT Adhi Karya (Persero) Tbk. (ADHI), which climbed 24.18% to Rp226 per share. Meanwhile, the top losers list featured PT Gunawan Dianjaya Steel Tbk. (JAWA), down 6.96% to Rp107, and PT Layland International Tbk. (LAPD), which retreated by 5.77%.
Technical Outlook and Global Sentiment
Analysts at Phintraco Sekuritas noted that the technical movement of the JCI during the first session signaled a “death cross” between the MA5 and MA20 indicators, further confirmed by a widening negative histogram on the MACD. However, there remains potential for a short-term technical rebound, as the stochastic RSI indicator currently sits in oversold territory.
“Investors are now looking ahead to the results of the Federal Reserve meeting and the subsequent comments from the Fed Chair, expected on Wednesday, US time,” the Phintraco Sekuritas research team stated in their report on Thursday.
Market sentiment remains sensitive to global developments. The recent volatility followed a 0.48% correction recorded on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, which was primarily triggered by uncertainty surrounding the conflict in the Middle East and its subsequent impact on global energy prices and inflation.
Moving forward, market participants will closely monitor crucial US economic data, including building permits, durable goods orders, housing starts, the PCE price index, and Q1 2026 GDP figures. Domestically, the release of Q1 2026 financial reports continues to serve as the primary catalyst for the market. Beyond corporate performance, investors remain highly focused on corporate actions, such as dividend distributions and rights issues.
“Domestically, investors are keenly observing the Q1 2026 earnings season, alongside the robust wave of corporate actions, including dividend payments and rights issues,” the report concluded.
