[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Kim Jisun] Related theme stocks are soaring as South Korean researchers claim to have developed superconductors that can be used at room temperature and upper pressure.
However, since academic verification has not been done properly, investment attention is required as there is a possibility that it could degenerate into a 'theme' investment. In particular, the Korea Exchange warns of investment caution in related stocks.
According to the financial investment industry on the 3rd, the Korea Exchange Market Monitoring Committee announced that SuNAM will be suspended for four days (for one day) after the market closed. "The stock price has soared more than 40% over the past two days since the designation of the investment warning item," the exchange said. "The suspension of trading during the designation of the investment warning item is limited to this time." The exchange earlier announced on July 31 that it would designate the southwest as an investment warning item and designate it as an investment warning item on July 1.
The exchange, along with SuNAM, announced that Duksung, which is represented by superconductor theme stocks, will be designated as an investment warning item on the 4th of this month after announcing it as an investment warning item the previous day.
The exchange explained the reason for designating investment warning stocks, saying, "After announcing the designation of investment warning stocks, the closing price on the 3rd rose more than 60% from the closing price five days ago, it is the highest among the closing price on the 15th, and the stock price growth rate for five days is more than five times that of the stock index during the same period."
The exchange explained, "If it rises more than 40% for two days after the designation of investment warning stocks and is higher than the closing price of the day before the designation of investment warning stocks, trading can be suspended only once."
