TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The government has declared national holidays and collective leave for Christmas 2025 and New Year 2026. This has an impact on the adjustment of trading activities on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX).
The trading closures have been specified in the 2025 and 2026 Stock Exchange Holiday Calendars. Based on this calendar, the stock exchange will be closed on December 25, 26, and 31, 2025.
December 25 is the day of Jesus Christ's birth. December 26 is the day when people take a collective time off for Christmas. Trading will resume on Monday, December 29, and Tuesday, December 30, 2025.
Furthermore, the trading will be closed again on December 31. Based on the holidays determined over the past year, the total trading days for 2025 amount to 237.
Starting in 2026, trading on the IDX will be closed on January 1. Trading activities will return to normal on January 2, 2026. Based on the 2026 stock exchange calendar, there are a total of 239 trading days.
Meanwhile, the Indonesia Composite Index (IHSG) opened today with an increase of 12.6 points or 0.15 percent to reach 8,597.38. Meanwhile, the LQ45 index, consisting of 45 prominent stocks, rose by 1.03 points or 0.12 percent to reach 849.99.
Due to the Christmas holiday and collective leave on Thursday and Friday, the stock market will only be open for three days this week. Historically, the IHSG does not always experience gains leading up to the Christmas and New Year holidays.
From overseas, Ratna Lim, Head of Research at Phintraco Sekuritas, stated that market participants are still hopeful that the Fed will cut its benchmark interest rate next year, despite the release of the latest economic data from the United States, which far exceeded expectations.
According to the CME FedWatch Tool, Fed Funds Futures still predict two interest rate cuts by the Fed next year.
On the other hand, market participants are awaiting the U.S. initial jobless claims data, which is expected to rise slightly to 226,000 people, up from 224,000 the previous week. Meanwhile, the U.S. government will raise import tariffs on Chinese semiconductors in June 2027. The exact amount of the tariffs will be determined at least one month prior.
