Today’s Stocks: 5 Promising Companies Worth Watching

Today's stock trading, Wednesday, September 23, 2026, is taking place amid pressure on the IDX Composite. 

At Tuesday's close (September 22), the IDX Composite fell 1.69% to 6,277.04, moving back below the psychological level of 6,300. Selling pressure also pushed the index below several key moving averages.

Amid these conditions, several analysts still see a number of stocks that can be monitored based on technical setups and sector catalysts. The five issuers attracting attention are AMRT, TPIA, ISAT, CPIN, and EMAS.

Key Takeaways

• The IDX Composite remains under pressure, with the 6,208–6,258 area being one of the ranges monitored by MNC Sekuritas.
• AMRT and TPIA have specific trading plans from MNC Sekuritas, while ISAT, CPIN, and EMAS are included among Phintraco Sekuritas' top picks.
• The BI Rate decision, rupiah movements, foreign fund flows, and global market conditions are important catalysts for IDX Composite stocks today.

IDX Composite Conditions Today and Market Sentiment

Pressure on the IDX Composite increased after the index closed below the MA60 and MA100. MNC Sekuritas expects the IDX Composite to test the 6,208–6,258 area, while the nearest strengthening area is at 6,333–6,364. Broader support levels are at 6,267 and 6,108, with resistance at 6,440 and 6,535.

Phintraco Sekuritas also sees the potential for the IDX Composite to test 6,186–6,200. In addition to technical factors, investors are monitoring pressure on the rupiah and the results of Bank Indonesia's Board of Governors Meeting on September 23.

These conditions mean that today's trading strategy requires greater attention to entry levels, support, resistance, and risk management, rather than simply chasing stocks that are currently rising.

5 Potential Stocks Worth Monitoring Today

1. AMRT

PT Sumber Alfaria Trijaya Tbk (AMRT) is one of today's stock picks from MNC Sekuritas. In its September 23 research, MNC Sekuritas gave a trading buy scenario at Rp1,290–Rp1,305.

The stated price targets are Rp1,350 and Rp1,375, with a risk limit or stop loss below Rp1,280. In the previous session, AMRT fell 0.76% to Rp1,305.

The trading plan indicates that AMRT is being monitored for a potential technical rebound, although price movement still needs to be confirmed within the levels determined by analysts.

2. TPIA

PT Chandra Asri Pacific Tbk (TPIA) is also on MNC Sekuritas' list of stocks to watch. The strategy is buy on weakness in the Rp1,790–Rp1,810 area.

MNC Sekuritas lists targets of Rp1,890–Rp1,955 and a stop loss below Rp1,765. TPIA previously fell 3.72% to Rp1,810, with selling pressure still visible.

For investors looking for potential stocks in 2026, TPIA may enter the radar based on this technical analysis, although short-term opportunities still depend on the stock's ability to maintain its support area.

3. ISAT

PT Indosat Tbk (ISAT) is included in Phintraco Sekuritas' top picks for trading on September 23. In addition to Phintraco, ISAT also appeared in summaries of recommendations from several other securities firms on the same day.

Interestingly, ISAT was among the stocks that gained in the previous session. Market data cited by Bisnis showed ISAT rose 4.33% to Rp2,410.

This price performance puts ISAT on the radar from a momentum perspective, but investors still need to assess whether the gains can hold while the IDX Composite remains under pressure overall.

4. CPIN

PT Charoen Pokphand Indonesia Tbk (CPIN) is also included in Phintraco Sekuritas' list of today's stock picks.

In the previous session, CPIN gained 0.96% to Rp3,140.

This movement is one of the reasons CPIN is worth monitoring today. However, the stock's position still needs to be viewed alongside consumer and agribusiness sector conditions as well as overall market sentiment.

5. EMAS

PT Merdeka Gold Resources Tbk (EMAS) is one of Phintraco Sekuritas' top picks for September 23.

EMAS may attract investors following gold-related commodity stocks, particularly while global gold prices remain a market focus. Phintraco noted that gold prices were around US$4,396 per troy ounce on September 22.

However, exposure to commodities also means that stock prices can be influenced by changes in gold prices, mining sector sentiment, and global market conditions.

Stock Catalysts Today: BI Rate and Rupiah

In addition to technical factors, Bank Indonesia's decision is one of the key catalysts for trading on September 23. Before the September Board of Governors Meeting, the BI Rate stood at 5.75%, after BI maintained it at the August 18–19 Board of Governors Meeting.

The market is also watching how BI responds to pressure on the rupiah and external conditions. Phintraco expects BI to maintain the 5.75% BI Rate, while August credit growth is projected to increase to 15% year-on-year.

Market reactions to BI's decision and communication can affect banking, consumer, commodity, and large-cap stocks.

How to Approach Volatile IDX Composite Stocks?

With the IDX Composite still below several moving averages, today's stock recommendations should be used as a monitoring reference rather than a certainty about price direction.

Investors can compare entry areas with support, monitor trading volume, and determine risk limits before executing a transaction. The distinction between trading buy and buy on weakness is also important because they involve different entry contexts.

With the IDX Composite still potentially testing the 6,200 area, discipline around technical levels is becoming increasingly relevant.

Conclusion

The five issuers worth monitoring on September 23, 2026 are AMRT, TPIA, ISAT, CPIN, and EMAS, based on recommendations from MNC Sekuritas and Phintraco Sekuritas. 

AMRT and TPIA have more detailed trading plan levels, while ISAT, CPIN, and EMAS are among Phintraco's top picks.

However, IDX Composite stocks are still facing pressure. Therefore, investors need to pay attention to index movements, the BI Rate decision, the rupiah, trading volume, and the technical levels of each stock before making investment decisions.
