The rupiah opened 0.23% stronger at Rp18,118 per dollar on Wednesday 4 November 2026, in line with gains across most Asian currencies. The US dollar index rose 0.12% to 101.87 after US JOLTS job openings for September rose to 7.52 million, above expectations.
A stronger US labour market supports the dollar, which keeps dollar-priced feed imports expensive in Indonesia, though the rupiah's gain this session is small.
After 2,356 past bullish macro events, US Dollar (Broad) moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (60% higher; middle half -0.3% to +0.7%), and +0.4% over 20.
