The composite stock price index or Indonesia Composite Index (ICI) is a composite index of all stocks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange and its movements indicate conditions that occur in the capital market. For investors, the ICI movement is one of the important indicator to make a decision whether the stocks will be sold, held or bought new shares. The ICI movement (y) was influenced by several factors including Inflation (x 1 ), Exchange Rate (x 2 ) and SBI interest rate (x 3 ). This study aims to compare the ICI modeling using the parameric and nonparametric approaches, namely multivariable linear regression and multivariable spline regression. Determination of the better model is based on the smaller MSE and the larger R 2 . The best regression model is multivariable spline regression with x 1 , x 2 and x 3 , each with a sequence orde (3,2,2) and the number of knot points (1,2,2). Keywords: Indonesia Composite Index, Multiple Linear Regression, Multivariable Spline Regression, MSE, R 2
