# Rupiah Extends Gains in Response to Economic Growth Figures

> The rupiah strengthened 0.39% to Rp18,097 per dollar on Thursday, Nov. 5, after Indonesia reported third-quarter 2026 economic growth of 5.47%, above the 5.2% consensus forecast and up from 5.29% in the previous quarter. Broad buying in domestic bonds and a weaker US dollar also supported the currency.

## Why it matters

A stronger rupiah can reduce the local-currency cost of imported feed ingredients and other commodities. The softer dollar may add support to dollar-priced commodities, but the article reports no direct commodity-market move.
