Bank Negara Indonesia (BBNI IJ) - The Happening

Currently, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/jasa-marga-persero-tbk-pt" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:12747:1" rel="noopener">Jasa Marga (Persero) (JSMR IJ)</a> debt to equity is at 2.5x, a five-year high and its earnings multiple is also at the 5 years high at 35x. Some of the bullishness comes from the creation of the INA, the first sovereign wealth fund of Indonesia that will create another funding avenue for Jasa Marga. The commencement of vaccination for public servants and elderlies has also sparked positivity although the result (more traffic) is yet to be seen. At the current level, Jasa Marga's profitability is 28% lower than the peers despite almost having a 100% higher D/E ratio. It is also trading at 64% PER premium and 10% PBR premium. <figure class="editor-figure mceNonEditable"><img src="https://static-prod.smartkarma.com/images/media/000/192/999/original/image_59574917191615277295474.png?1615277295" class="editor-image img-responsive" data-smartkarma-image-id="192999"></figure><div class="content-remarks">source: Capital IQ</div>At the current level, investors should wait before adding more Jasa Marga into the portfolio as it is trading at 5 years high in PER and also its D/E ratio as well.
