Jakarta - Global negative sentiment triggered the correction of the Jakarta Composite Index (JCI) at the opening of trading on Thursday (9/9) by 1.7 points.

"We assess that the global market currently tends to wait and see for this week's economic data, while the domestic market has minimal sentiment ahead of the release of the trade balance next week," said analyst at PT Samuel Sekuritas Research in Jakarta.

In addition, the majority of commodity prices tend to be flat.

"Today, we estimate the JCI has the potential to continue to weaken," explained the analyst.

The JCI at the opening of trading on Thursday declined 1.7 points (0.03%) to 6,024.32. Meanwhile, LQ45's leading stock index rose 0.03 points to 856.63.

For global conditions, US stocks closed lower again where the Dow Jones Index fell 0.2% to 35,031, followed by the S&P500 fell 0.13%, and the Nasdaq fell 0.57%.
