According to M. Nafan Aji Gusta, Senior Technical Analyst at Mirae Asset Sekuritas Indonesia, the market sentiment remains cautious. “Technically, the formation of a black closing bozu candle suggests that a bearish consolidation phase is in effect, despite the JCI’s previous rebound from wave 5/A,” he explained on Friday. Based on this technical outlook, Mirae Asset Sekuritas has issued recommendations for investors to monitor BRMS, HRTA, and MARK.

In a similar vein, MNC Sekuritas anticipates further downward pressure for the JCI. Their projections indicate that the index may slide toward the 5,899 level during Friday’s trading session.

“We estimate that the next correction phase will test the 5,899 level, which also serves as a crucial support area,” the firm stated in its morning note. Reflecting this cautious stance, MNC Sekuritas has highlighted BBTN, BREN, BRPT, and EMAS as stocks to watch for the day.
