Remain alert
Does this condition mark the rise of Bakrie Group in the stock exchange? It remaind unclear. But in general, the increase in the shares prices of Bakrie Group’s issuers was driven by two sentiments, namely the increase in commodity price and debt restructuring.
However, analyst at Semesta Indovest Aditya Perdana Putra said, the shares of Bakrie Group’s issuers still have potential risks, despite of high liquidity, as well as transaction volume and frequency. Therefore, the investors have to remain alert.
Analyst at First Asia Capital David Sutyanto estimates that BUMI’s share, which was listed on LQ45, is attractive. “By selecting the shares listed on LQ45, we have minimized the liquidity risk,” he said.
