As of 10:30 AM on the 3rd, NAVER is trading at 364,500 KRW, up 0.55% from the previous day. The trading volume is 463,032 shares, which is 23.86% of the previous day's volume. NAVER is known as the operator of Naver, the number one internet portal.


On January 29, Hwang Hyun-jun, a researcher at DB Financial Investment, stated, "Due to the maintenance of the pay/webtoon expansion marketing strategy, profitability is expected to decline for the time being. However, it is necessary to note that the user base and transaction volume are expanding and establishing their position. Additionally, as competition among streaming platforms intensifies, securing high-quality content is becoming increasingly important. Recently, NAVER has strengthened its content division through the acquisition of the web novel platform Wattpad and the purchase of shares in Big Hit's subsidiary. The growing expectations for the content business, which had been disappointing, through IP expansion, are also positive." He set NAVER's target price at 440,000 KRW.


Over the past five days, individual investors have net sold 398,407 shares of NAVER, while foreigners and institutions have net sold 217,028 shares and net bought 651,567 shares, respectively.
