INDEF senior economist Tauhid Ahmad expects the rupiah to stay between 18,000 and 18,100 per dollar through year-end. He cites high global oil prices and foreign investor sentiment toward Indonesian stocks following the MSCI report as key drivers.
A persistently weak rupiah keeps imported feed ingredient costs high for Indonesian buyers, and elevated oil prices feed into freight and energy costs.
