[Special Stock] Gyeongnam Pharmaceutical, Domestic Hoarding Highlighted Amid Shortage of Chinese Cold Medicine Increase
[Asia Economy Reporter Jang Hyowon] Kyungnam Pharmaceutical is showing strong performance. It is interpreted to be influenced by news of shortages of cold medicine and antipyretics due to a surge in COVID-19 patients in China.
As of 10:39 AM on the 2nd, Kyungnam Pharmaceutical is trading at 3,090 KRW, up 15.11% compared to the previous day.
Recently, as China has eased its COVID-19 restrictions and a 'twindemic' of influenza and COVID-19 is occurring domestically, concerns about shortages of cold medicine are growing. In particular, cases of stockpiling cold medicine for smuggling into China have been reported.
