Rating changes assigned by Fitch, Moody’s, Standard and Poor’s and PEFINDO are analysed. On the weak-form efficient market of Indonesia stock market, rating reclassification will have an impact for stockholder if the new rating contains new information or if there is redistribution of wealth within bondholder and stockholder.
