AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Rupiah Shock Hits Markets: Indonesia’s rupiah slid to a fresh record low around 17,658–17,668 per US$ as trading resumed after the holiday, while the Jakarta Composite Index dropped about 4% in a global sell-off tied to a stronger dollar, foreign outflows, and higher oil prices. IDX Urges Calm: The Indonesia Stock Exchange pushed back against panic, saying the correction is part of wider regional volatility and investors should stick to fundamentals and risk-based plans. Oil-Inflation Pressure: Southeast Asia’s growth outlook is getting dented by crude staying high after the Iran-related energy shock, raising inflation fears and keeping investors cautious. Health Watch: Indonesia is stepping up Ebola monitoring after WHO’s Congo alert, while Bali tightens hantavirus surveillance at entry points. Travel & Culture: From Bali to Borobudur, Buddhist monks walked for peace ahead of Vesak, and a new Marsinah museum in East Java is set to draw education-focused visitors. Trade/Events: TFWA APEC in Singapore welcomed 2,814 visitors, signaling continued momentum for travel retail and airport business.
