[Featured Stock] The Superconductor Theme Stock Rises Again... Investment Warnings Ignored
Superconductor-themed stocks are showing a sharp rise on the 16th. Although they have been designated as investment warning stocks due to short-term overheating by the Korea Exchange, buying momentum seems to be centered around individual investors.
As of 10:35 a.m. on the day, Sinseong Delta Tech (30.0%) and Mobis (29.9%) are hitting the upper price limit. Power Logics (28.51%), Seonam (24.07%), Deokseong (27.38%), and Seowon (25.0%) are also showing sharp increases.
Most of these superconductor-themed stocks are not known to have any connection with superconductors. In the case of Seonam, the company officially stated that it has no relation to superconductors.
Additionally, LK-99, which is mentioned as a superconductor material, is still under controversy regarding its authenticity. The Korea Superconductivity and Cryogenics Society’s LK-99 Verification Committee announced plans to produce samples of LK-99 soon and conduct cross-measurements. The committee expressed a negative opinion on LK-99’s room-temperature superconductivity but said it would not draw conclusions until the measurements are completed.
Previously, the Center for Materials Theory at the University of Maryland, USA, and the Institute of Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences have stated that LK-99 is unlikely to be a room-temperature superconductor. The international academic journal Science commented on the growing skepticism through an editorial titled "The Short and Glamorous Life of the Room-Temperature Superconductor Claim."
