The Options of Investment or Trading in ABMM Stock on the Indonesia Stock Exchange

This study aims to assess whether ABMM shares are more advantageous as an investment option or for active trading. The analysis utilizes secondary data derived from the financial statements of PT ABM Investama Tbk and stock price charts. The approach encompasses descriptive analysis through fundamental analysis, examining financial performance, alongside technical analysis to evaluate potential price fluctuations. The findings indicate that ABMM shares possess strong potential for both long-term investment and short-term trading strategies. In the long run, the stock demonstrates positive growth opportunities driven by solid financial performance and appealing dividends; however, certain risks need to be acknowledged, including considerable debt levels and potentially overvalued shares. For short-term trading, current bearish market trends combined with identifiable support levels present opportunities for buying shares with the intent of achieving quick profits. For an investor, when the stock price falls, investors can increase the number of shares they own by buying and when the price rises above its fair price, investors can sell it to take profit to get capital gain. Meanwhile, for a trader, after buying shares, the choice is only one of two alternatives, namely taking profit when the stock price rises or cutting loss when the stock price falls.
