<p>Dear Authors,</p><p> </p><p>On behalf of the Editorial Board of Jurnal Bisnis dan Manajemen (JBM), I would like to inform you that the article entitled:</p><p>“THE EFFECT OF FUNDAMENTAL VARIABLES AND MACROECONOMIC INDICATORS IN RETURN STOCK COMPANIES REGISTERED IN JAKARTA ISLAM INDEXâ€</p><p>has been rejected in the reviewing process.</p><p>Let me emphasize that due to our readers’ trust as well as the very good opinion in the scientific area, JBM is obliged to follow the highest requirements for the published articles. The large interest of authors in publishing their works in our journal makes it necessary to introduce a very restrictive publishing process. Therefore, please perceive the decision in these terms. At the same time, I encourage you for further cooperation.</p><p>Please, find the review remarks below which justifies the decision:</p><p>After reviewing the paper, I regret to inform you that your paper was found to be unsuitable for publication in JBM, because:</p><ul><li>Researchers are based on national data that may not be the interest of the international readers. It would be better for the authors to consider wider multinational data sample. In fact, the English language must also be improved.</li><li>Research findings do not have implication to management while management is the principal topic of JBM.</li><li>There is no straight information on research period but it is suggested that data are gathered from the period of 2012-2014. It is not up to date research to be published. Therefore, it does not represent well-analyzed research works (data too small and outdated).</li><li>The format does not follow JBM template.</li><li>The reference is not from journal article. In fact, 80% of the references must be from journals.</li></ul><p>Thank you and keep writing.</p>
