[Featured Stock] T'way Holdings Shows Two Consecutive Days of Gains Amid Management Dispute
T'way Holdings has shown strong gains for two consecutive days following news that the management rights dispute surrounding low-cost carrier (LCC) T'way Air has intensified.
As of 9:33 a.m. on the 22nd, T'way Holdings is trading at 1,229 KRW per share, up 20.85% from the previous close. After recording a nearly 30% increase the previous day, the stock surged to as high as 1,256 KRW during intraday trading, setting a new 52-week high. T'way Air is also trading around 3,525 KRW, up 4.9%.
This follows Daemyung Sono Group's earlier issuance of a management improvement request to T'way Air, signaling its intention to participate in management. The request included demands such as the resignation of the current management and raising funds through a rights offering. The management rights dispute has triggered a buying spree.
