JAKARTA – Despite the success in breaking another record at morning session, Jakarta Stock Price Composite Index (JCI) slipped at today’s (29/8) closing bell.
Monitoring the board until the closing bell, JCI was closed at 7,656.37, lower than 7,672.26 seen at the morning bell. JCI slippage this afternoon was in contrast with its mid-day pattern that was seemingly more alive and bullish.
However, the decline brought JCI arriving at the safe threshold at 7,600-ish, a new record made by JCI earlier this week. Other indices managed to ride along this optimistic trend, including LQ45 that moved up 0.23% to 948.648, IDX30 that shifted 0.47% up to 480.502, IDX80 up 0.27% to 132.676, and IDXESGL up 0.88% to 166.566.
Some of energy sector stocks were seen gaining strides, including, among others, PT Barito Renewables Energy Tbk (BREN) and PT Amman Mineral Internasional Tbk (AMMN), whereas PT Adaro Energy Indonesia Tbk (ADRO), PT Indo Tambangraya Megah Tbk (ITMG), PT Aneka Tambang Tbk (ANTM), and PT Bukit Asam Tbk (PTBA) saw corrections.
