TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) temporarily halted trading (trading halt) on Thursday, January 29, 2026, at 09:26 Jakarta Automated Trading System (JATS) time, due to the Indonesia Composite Index (IHSG) declining by 8 percent.

"IDX took this action to maintain orderly, fair, and efficient stock trading in accordance with Regulation No. II-A regarding Equity Securities Trading and further regulated in the IDX Board of Directors Decree number Kep-00002/BEI/04-2025," said IDX Corporate Secretary Kuatsar Primadi Nurahmad in an official statement.

This morning, the IHSG opened at 8,027.8. Then, it plunged to 7,654.6. The day before, meanwhile, the IHSG closed at 8,320.5.

With this trading halt, IDX suspended trading for two consecutive days. On Wednesday, January 28, 2026, trading was also temporarily halted as it weakened by 8.00 percent to 8,261.78.

IHSG declined after Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) announced the temporary suspension of the Indonesian stock index rebalancing. "The announcement by MSCI, which did not provide additional weight or rebalancing for Indonesian stocks, became the initial trigger for market pressure. However, the decline in IHSG, which led to the trading halt, more reflects short-term emotional reactions and panic selling actions," said Indonesian capital market observer Reydi Octa when contacted by Antara in Jakarta, Wednesday, January 28, 2026.
