JAKARTA - On Tuesday, January 17, the number of shares sold by foreign investors reached a fantastic figure, totaling 4,881,960,400 shares. Actually, foreign investors also purchased more than 3.51 billion shares, a significant increase from the previous days. However, due to the substantial difference between the two, net foreign volume fell to a new low of minus 1,370,903,300 this time.
