Kakao Pay, which was listed on the KOSPI market yesterday, closed trading at 193,000 KRW, about twice its IPO price (90,000 KRW), becoming the second-largest financial stock by market capitalization after Kakao Bank. Expectations for large-scale passive fund inflows and inclusion in the KOSPI 200 special cases have raised forecasts for stock price increases, but on the second day of listing, Kakao Pay is suddenly showing a downward trend. At this time, foreign investors are maintaining a net selling trend from the previous day (14,9568 shares) and have reportedly sold about 67,000 shares in the early session.
