Bloomberg Businessweek: retail investors account for 60% of trading on Indonesia's stock market

Like the U.S., Indonesia has seen a convergence of social media with a new interest in trading by small investors.  Retail investors accounted for about a third of daily trading in Indonesia's stock market as of June 2020.  A year later, that has almost doubled to 60%.  About 80% of these people are 40 or younger.
