Kurs rupiah terhadap dolar AS di pasar spot antarbank Jakarta pada sesi Selasa pagi melemah meliwati angka batas psikologis Rp9.150 per dolar AS, karena pelaku melepas rupiah, akibat merosot pertumbuhan ekonomi dunia dan masih tingginya harga minyak mentah dunia.
The rupiah fell below the psychological level of Rp9,150 per dollar on Tuesday morning as investors sold the local unit over worries about a global economic slowdown and soaring global crude prices, a foreign exchange analyst said.
