Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) is trading at 26,650 KRW as of 11:30 AM on the 23rd, down 0.56% from the previous day. The trading volume is 4,389,674 shares, which is about 43.77% of the previous day's volume. KEPCO is known as a special corporation established under the Korea Electric Power Corporation Act.


On December 22, Kiwoom Securities researcher Lee Jong-hyung stated, "Through the recent electricity rate system reform, KEPCO has secured a minimum structural profit capacity regardless of fuel cost fluctuations. Additionally, the climate and environmental-related costs included in the electricity volume have been separated to lay the groundwork for reflecting future increases in climate and environmental fees. This reform is the first step toward normalizing KEPCO's stock price, which had been undervalued for a long time due to profit uncertainties caused by external variables. Preparatory work for reflecting climate and environmental fees, the next step, is also underway." He set KEPCO's target price at 38,000 KRW.


Over the past five days, individual investors have net sold 3,896,271 shares of KEPCO, while foreigners and institutions have net bought 2,324,510 shares and 3,313,937 shares, respectively.
