Highlights

Bullish and Bearish are simple terms that are used in capital market to characterized trends. Bullish is defined as a rise in price (IHSG) over a long period of time, while Bearish is a decline in prices (IHSG) and an increase in volatility.

The necessity of identifying stock market current condition, and its projection is high, particularly for investors and regulators.

Katadata Insight Center (KIC) conducted a comprehensive research in identifying bearish and/or bullish period of Indonesia Composite Index (ICI).

Our team developed a logistic model that combine the domestic and global macroeconomic indicator to the market condition, in order to predict the market condition on the next period.

The logistic model deliver market condition probability (bearish or bullish). Bullish condition is recognized should the index value reached ≥ 50%. Conversely, bearish condition is recognized should the index value reached < 50%.

For this reasons, Katadata Insight Center (KIC) has developed a logistic model by identifying the IDX Composite Bearish and Bullish period as well as the indicators of domestic and global macroeconomics, in order to project the prediction for the next period, available through Katadata Market Sentiment Index that will be publish in monthly basis.
