# Indonesian Rupiah gains as Q3 GDP beats expectations

> Indonesia's Q3 2026 GDP grew 5.47% year on year, above the 5.2% forecast, and 1.59% quarter on quarter. The rupiah firmed against the dollar after a Democratic sweep in the US midterm elections and a sharp fall in oil prices. Strong US ADP jobs data and high odds of a Fed rate hike limited the dollar's losses.

## Why it matters

A firmer rupiah and lower oil reduce the cost of imported feed inputs for Indonesian buyers. The dollar's support from expected Fed tightening could reverse this gain.
