Indonesia’s consumer sentiment softened in February 2026, with the Consumer Confidence Index slipping to 125.2 from 127.0 in January, according to data updated on 9 March 2026. The decline marks a modest pullback in optimism after a stronger start to the year.
Despite the month-on-month decrease, the index remains well above the 100-point threshold that separates pessimism from optimism, indicating that Indonesian households are still broadly confident about economic conditions. The February reading suggests a cautious tone among consumers, which may reflect growing uncertainty or shifting expectations regarding incomes, prices or employment.
Market participants and policymakers are likely to watch upcoming releases closely to determine whether February’s dip signals the beginning of a more sustained cooling in consumer sentiment or merely a temporary adjustment after January’s higher reading.
