Islamic Capital Market Reactions to Political Transition: Evidence from Indonesia's 2024 Presidential Election

This study conducts an event analysis on the impact of the official announcement of the 2024 Indonesian presidential election results by the General Elections Commission (KPU) on stock market performance. The objective is to investigate changes in abnormal returns (AR) and trading volume activity (TVA) during an 11-day event window (±5 days surrounding the announcement date) and a 60-day estimation period. The sample comprises 30 companies listed on the Jakarta Islamic Index (JII), representing nine industry sectors, selected through saturated sampling. Analytical methods include the Paired T-test and the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test to examine statistical differences in AR and TVA before and after the event. The findings reveal no significant difference in AR for the JII overall, although the consumer non-cyclicals sector displays a noteworthy deviation. In contrast, a significant change in TVA is observed, particularly within the basic materials sector. These results underscore the importance for investors in the Islamic capital market to remain attentive to political developments that may affect asset performance. The study provides meaningful insights for investors, regulators, and academics regarding portfolio diversification and risk management in the context of political uncertainty, contributing to the broader discourse on Islamic capital markets.

Abstract

This study conducts an event analysis on the impact of the official announcement of the 2024 Indonesian presidential election results by the General Elections Commission (KPU) on stock market performance. The objective is to investigate changes in abnormal returns (AR) and trading volume activity (TVA) during an 11-day event window (±5 days surrounding the announcement date) and a 60-day estimation period. The sample comprises 30 companies listed on the Jakarta Islamic Index (JII), representing nine industry sectors, selected through saturated sampling. Analytical methods include the Paired T-test and the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test to examine statistical differences in AR and TVA before and after the event. The findings reveal no significant difference in AR for the JII overall, although the consumer non-cyclicals sector displays a noteworthy deviation. In contrast, a significant change in TVA is observed, particularly within the basic materials sector. These results underscore the importance for investors in the Islamic capital market to remain attentive to political developments that may affect asset performance. The study provides meaningful insights for investors, regulators, and academics regarding portfolio diversification and risk management in the context of political uncertainty, contributing to the broader discourse on Islamic capital markets.
