JAKARTA - The movement of the Composite Stock Price Index (JCI) is predicted to strengthen today Friday, April 8, after yesterday rising 0.32 percent to a level of 7.127.367.

Yesterday, foreign investors made a net buy or foreign net buy worth IDR 538.46 billion in all markets. Analysts assess, the strengthening of the JCI on Thursday was supported by the continued existence of capital inflows.

As for today, investors will still focus on global sentiment, namely the Central Bank of the United States (US), namely the Fed, which will plan to raise interest rates quite aggressively.

This is considered to be a negative sentiment for regional stock markets, which has the potential to trigger a capital outflow due to the tightening of the US benchmark interest rate monetary policy which is planned to increase in the second quarter.

JCI is expected to move limitedly between the support level of 7.100 and the resistance level of 7.150. According to Joshua, a number of stocks that can be observed include PT Telkom Indonesia Tbk (TLKM), PT Matahari Putra Prima Tbk (MPPA), and PT Smartfren Telecom Tbk (FREN).
