[Featured Stock] Samsung SDI Rises for 2 Consecutive Days on Electric Vehicle TF Formation

[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Yoon-joo] Samsung SDI is rising nearly 2% despite the sharp decline in the KOSPI index.

As of 9:27 a.m. on the 17th, Samsung SDI is trading at 559,000 KRW, up 1.82% (10,000 KRW) from the previous day.

According to media reports from the previous day, Samsung SDI has formed an electric vehicle joint development task force (TF) with Samsung Electronics, Samsung Electro-Mechanics, and Samsung SDS. It is known that key personnel from each company are participating in the TF.

Samsung SDI has so far pursued a conservative strategy that balances profitability with investment rather than aggressive investment. As competitors aggressively expanded battery factories in line with the growth of electric vehicles, Samsung SDI's market share declined. However, with the formation of the TF and active engagement in battery research and development, expectations that investment will accelerate are believed to be fueling buying momentum.
