# FX Reserves: Steady amidst the storm

> Indonesia's foreign-exchange reserves rose to USD 146.8 billion in October, supported by net inflows into SRBI and government securities, as well as outstanding FX swaps. The report also cited pressure on stock outflows and the rupiah following an MSCI decision, while US midterm-related peace prospects lowered oil futures and global bond yields.

## Why it matters

Lower oil futures could ease energy and freight costs for feed supply chains, while pressure on the rupiah can raise the local-currency cost of imports. These offsetting factors leave the direct commodity-price signal limited.
