# Indonesia Stocks Sink to 2020 Low  on Middle East Strains, Capital Flight

Indonesian shares plunged 140 points, or 2.5%, to around 5,457 in Monday morning trading, marking the fourth straight session of losses and notching their lowest level since November 2020.

The sell-off tracked declines across regional peers after reports of an Iranian missile strike on Israel reignited fears over the fragile ceasefire between Washington and Tehran.

Domestically, heavy capital outflows deepened as the market has now plunged more than 30% this year.

Meanwhile, the rupiah repeatedly slid to record lows amid investor unease over President Prabowo’s expansive spending agenda and surging fuel subsidies tied to the Middle East war.

Weekend assurances from the central bank chief and finance minister to raise yields on local assets failed to stem the rout.

Losses were broad-based, led by transport, energy, industrials, and cyclicals.

Major laggards included MD Entertainment (-12.1%), Impack Pratama Industries (-10.5%), Vale Indonesia (-9.8%), and Hartadinata Abadi (-8.0%).
