Conclusion, Limitation of Research

The 2015 International Conference of Management Sciences ICoMS 2015, April 23, UMY, Indonesia 146 CS AD variablesh ada high enough standard deviation of data, namely 0.10 with data variability was located between 0.00 and 3.90, so that value of skewness of the data was far from zero point and it was evidenced also by very high kurtosis value. Such characteristics of data were also followed by other variables, i.e.RETm_ 2 and DSBI_Retm 2 , but both of these variables had data skewness of closer to zero point. RETm, ABS_Retmand DTO variables had better datav ariability than the variables previously mentioned. Skewnes and kurtosis values of each variable indicated data normality and the data had been transformed but they still showed high skewnes and kurtosis values. Indications of data abnormality willlead to the level of significance between independent variables and dependent one. This fact can be seen in the results of the study presented in Table3: Table 3.

Direction of negative coefficient indicates the presence of herding behavior around the release of macro economic variables by Bank Indonesia and the herding behavior can be observed based the high turnover rate of stock. Report of BI rates reported periodically can reduce uncertainty of the stock market so that the herding behavior will decrease, and similarly, the variable of high and low trading volumes. When market faces high level of uncertainty, the herding behavior will decrease, as more investors us e ‘mimic’ behavior following direction of the market movement in general. However, the present study found not significant result. The release of BI rates by government and the high trading volume did not affect the herding behavior of investors of the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The herding behavior cannot be proven in the Indonesian stock market when the release of BI rates and stock trading volume information entered the trading floor. Results of data processing were not consistent with the hypothesis proposed. It is likely because: first, factor of data abnormality that was described in descriptive statistics; second, many factors affected direction of herding behavior of investors in the capital market in addition to the two factors that have been proposed in this study.

5. Conclusion, Limitation of Research

and Suggestion for Future Research This study examined the herding behavior in Indonesia Stock Exchange when the entrance of information SBI release and the high volume of trading stock. The estimation of the study based on daily data for 6 years. The herding behavior was not found because of the SBI interest rate is a macro economy fundamental factor that officialy announced by Bank of Indonesia, meaning the investors has got the information assurance to predict so there was no bias of investor psychology, or in other words there was no the herding The 2015 International Conference of Management Sciences ICoMS 2015, April 23, UMY, Indonesia 147 behavior in this case. The result of this study was accordance with Fernández et al. 2011 that the herding behavior happened more often in uncertainty information, therefore investors tend to follow decision made by other investors. There was the same fact of Chang et al. 2000 research that the macro economy information did not influence the herding behavior of investor in stock exchange of USA, Hongkong, and Japan. It showed that the fundamental information did not play a role in making investment decision due to the variation of information spreaded in stock exchange. The study has no significant influenced of the high turnover of stock trading towards the herding behavior in Indonesia. The result gave additional evidence that the high turnover of stock trading showed the many information flows, made the market is more liquid. The higher information openness made the investor behavior followed the group movement of certain information did not proven. There were several limitations on this study, first it used abnormal data, therefore it did not give enough maximum effect on the research. Second, the sample of the study was not be grouped in industry level, because it has been known well that macroeconomy variable might only be sensitive on certain industries. Further research can be done on sectoral level analysis or industries such as research done by Demirer et al. 2012 regarding there was the herding behavior on ADR portfolio of sectoral basis. The study can be conducted on individual investor group, foreigner, and domestics, further can be grouped into age, gender, marital status, education, profession, monthly income levelIc and Kahyaoglu 2013. The next research can be done on market stress due to the normal condition of investors tend to be more rasionalGunawan et al. 2011. REFERENCE Aduda, J., O. E. Oduor, and M. Onwonga. 2012.

It is an important economic institution for the purpose of capacity building and generating economic activity. At the same time the benefits from the awqaf assets can accrue to specific sections of society in particular the poorer sections. This arises from the unique characteristics of waqf viz. perpetuity once a property has been dedicated as waqf, it remains as such forever and permanence of conditions set by the waqif waqf founder. As such the stocks of awqaf assets and hence the benefitsusufructs, will increase over time. However to realize its potential, awqaf institutions need to be supported by clear legislation, run and managed efficiently by professionals, and supported by adequate and sustained waqf funding. This paper will cover firstly, a discussion on waqf and its philosophy; secondly on the role of the State Islamic Religious Council Negeri Sembilan MAINS, Malaysia in enhancing waqf institution. Waqf management and administration in Negeri Sembilan is governed under the Negeri Sembilan Wakaf Enactment 2005. MAINS has established the Negeri Sembilan Wakaf Corporation PWNS in 2005 to carry out the provisions under the Negeri Sembilan Wakaf Enactment 2005. The specific objectives of the establishment of PWNS are to revive the waqf culture among Muslims in the state, to ensure a more systematic and productive waqf management, to enhance stock of awqaf assets and to apply the corporate approach in waqf management. This paper will report on what PWNS has done and planned especially in the areas of capacity building and waqf funding for higher education. The paper will highlight the joint cooperation between MAINSPWNS and Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia USIM in the development of awqaf projects. MAINS has appointed USIM as a waqf muta walli . The projects being developed now are in the areas of healthcare and education, two areas of importance that can contribute to the development of the Ummah.

Its practice has been well established since the times of the Prophet may peace be upon him. It is an important economic institution for the purpose of capacity building and generating economic activity.

This arises from the unique characteristics of waqf viz. perpetuity once a property has been dedicated as waqf, it remains as such forever and permanence of conditions set by the waqif waqf founder. As such The 2015 International Conference of Management Sciences ICoMS 2015, April 23, UMY, Indonesia | 151 the stocks of awqaf assets and hence the benefitsusufructs, will increase over time.
