Although the volume of foreign purchases increased, net foreign exchange remained negative by 329 million shares
JAKARTA - Foreign investors purchased significantly more shares on Thursday, February 9, compared to the previous day. If the foreign buy volume was only around 1.7 billion shares previously, it could reach 2.33 billion this time. This figure, however, has not been able to generate positive net foreign volume because the volume of shares sold has instead reached 2.66 billion shares. The net foreign volume ended up at 329,177,900 shares in the negative. As it did the previous day, PT GoTo Gojek Tokopedia Tbk (GOTO) shares, which were sold by foreigners with a fantastic number of 1,576,960,000 shares, recorded the lowest net volume with -407,920,600 shares. PT Bukalapak.com Tbk (BUKA), on the other hand, became the share with the highest net volume, with 59,800,500 shares, after 77.37 million of its shares were purchased by foreign investors.
Foreign investors were also interested in the shares of PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (BBRI) and PT Bumi Resources Tbk (BUMI). With a net volume of more than 50 million shares each, 111.63 million BBRI and 77.90 million BUMI shares were sold to foreign shareholders. Furthermore, foreign investors bought 49.96 million shares of PT Ace Hardware Indonesia Tbk (ACES) and 52.96 million shares of PT Bank Central Asia Tbk (BBCA).
On the other hand, the other stocks that accompanied GOTO on the top-selling list were not selling in large volumes. Foreign investors sold 57.18 million PT Smartfren Telecom Tbk (FREN) shares and 36.80 million PT Garuda Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (GIAA). The net volume of the two shares is between -22 and -23 million shares. Furthermore, foreigners sold PT Dewi SHRI Farmindo Tbk (DEWI) shares as many as 19.76 million, with a very small purchase volume, resulting in a net volume of -19.49 million. Finally, 26.21 million shares of PT Hanjaya Mandala Sampoerna Tbk (HMSP) were removed from holdings, with a net volume of minus 14.60 million. (KD)
