YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe value of stocks in Southeast Asia’s biggest economy outperformed its regional rival by the most on record in December against the backdrop of two different political climates.
Indonesia’s equities benchmark Jakarta Composite Index rose 0.7% to close at a record Tuesday. The rally widened the market-value gap over Thai stocks — the region’s second-largest economy — to as much as $258 billion last month, the most since at least 2003, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Indonesia has benefited from optimism that the nation’s central bank may be done with rate hikes and the government’s economic policies would be uninterrupted by new administration with an upcoming election. The value of Indonesian shares has jumped about 25% in the past year, while that of Thailand has fallen 12% after months of a political stalemate and disappointing economic growth.
