Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) is trading at 26,850 KRW as of 10:30 AM on the 24th, up 0.19% from the previous day. The trading volume is 3,356,157 shares, which is 44.58% of the previous day's volume. KEPCO is known as a special corporation established under the Korea Electric Power Corporation Act.


On December 22, Jonghyung Lee, a researcher at Kiwoom Securities, stated, "Through the recent electricity rate system reform, KEPCO has secured a minimum structural profit capacity regardless of fuel cost fluctuations. Additionally, 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 charges. 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 charges, 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 4,319,394 shares of KEPCO, while foreigners and institutions have net bought 2,522,396 shares and 3,464,742 shares, respectively.
