The research method used in this study is an event study, comparing stock index, stock prices, abnormal returns, and trading volume activity 10 days before and after the event. The sample was selected using a total sampling technique from 8 companies on the boycott list. The data used is secondary data published by the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The statistical test technique used is the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The results of this study indicate that there are no differences in stock index, stock prices, abnormal returns, and trading volume activity due to the BDS movement.
