Abstract

There are three grades in efficient capital market. They are: (1) weak form, (2) semi strong form, and (3) strong form. Weak form efficiency, the market is efficient in the weak sense if share prices fully reflect the information implied by all prior price movements.The purpose of this research is to know whether the stock price instataneously and fully reflect relevant historical information (weak form efficient capital market hypotesis). This means if someone trades stocks by using historical information, it will not earn abnormal return. In addition, this research is tests the assumption that capital market efficiency in the bullish condition is different from capital marketefficiency in the normal condition. The research is necessary for the reason that if slock price does not instantaneously and fully reflect relevant available informations, it will be able to mislead economic decisions.The focus of this research is on the monthly stock price (the share price at the end of the month) to 23 companies which went publicc before Januari 1989. The year of 1989 was capital market period in the bullish condition, while 1992 year period is capital market period in the normal condition.The hypothesis of this research is : (I) Jakarta Stock Exchange (JSX) is efficient, and (2) stock market (JSX) efficiency is the different after stock market condition to reach normal condition. The first hypothesis is to reach normal condition. The first hypothesis is to reach normal condition. The first hypothesis is tested by using probvalue which are base on randomnes test and serial correlation test. Randomnes test is used because one of the characteristics of the efficient market is that prices change randomly, while the serial corelation test is interrelated with the other characteristic of the efficient capital market, that the change of security prices has no corelation to each other. The statistical test, i.e. Wilcoxon 's signed rank test.From the statistical analysis of the data we find that hypothesis of this research, while serial corelation test failed to reject the second hypothesis. This research hypothesis that stock market efficiency in the bullish condition is different fromn stock market efficiency in the normal condition was fail to rejected. In other words, if the sample was representative of population, this reserch implicity stated that weak form capital market efficienyfor the year of1989 and 1992 are valid in Indonesia.The result of this research is in effect for 1989 and 1992 with monthly secondary-data get from the share price at the end of the month.

Abstract

The monetery crisis has attacted Indonesia since the mid of 1997. Sharp increase ofUS dollar exchange rate and the due of international loan hurted Indonesianeconomy and business painfully. It is very rational that this national probleminfluence the performance of companies listed in Jakarta Stock Exchange (JSX).Increasing the price, in rupiah, of imported material and other goods and servicesfrom other countries that based on dollar value destortedthe ability of companies tomaintain their financial performance.This study intent to identify and analyze the impact of monetary crisis to theperformance of companies listed in JSX. 129 manufacturing companies selected assample to answer the question whether the monetary crisis has already attacted theperformance of companies listed in JSX. The sample, then, sub-grouped to the foursub-sample based on sector of businesses to explain which of the sector hurting most.By using t-test and spearman rank correlation all the hypothesis are tested. Sixfinancial ratios used to represent the company performance. Those ratios are consistof three ratio categories: profitability, liquidity and operation, and leverage.The results of the study shown that companies listed in JSX are impacted by monetarycrisis. All means of financial ratios after crisis used in this study are worse than thosein the year before crisis. T-test results show that all indicators of ratios significantlydifferent except Current Ratio and Debt to Equity Ratio. The explanation that can beprovided from these findings is that the impact of crisis to those two ratios cannot beshown in the very short time (only six months), because the liquidity, debt, and equityof the sample are still not significantly changing from the first semester of the year of1997. The explanation of those finding also supported by analysis of sectors ofindustry. Four sectors, taken from JSX directory, shown consistently with totalsample except sector of heavy investment as: building construction, real estate, and other heavy investment industries. The explanation of this exception is that thosecompanies in sector 4 have not yet been impacted by the crisis.
