The holding company sector, which had been relatively overlooked during periods of sharp index rallies, is now showing a solid performance. This is attributed not only to improved earnings from subsidiaries but also to heightened expectations for stable dividends and shareholder return policies amid increased market volatility. In particular, with recent discussions intensifying around institutionalizing mandatory treasury share cancellation, the potential reduction of net asset value (NAV) discounts for holding companies is drawing renewed attention from the market.


The financial holding company sector has also experienced upward momentum, driven by expectations for enhanced shareholder returns through stronger dividend policies and treasury share buybacks and cancellations. Experts have assessed, "With upcoming policy changes and earnings stability, the trend of increasing shareholder value across both holding and financial holding companies is likely to continue."

Meanwhile, interest in stock loans continues to rise. Investors seeking not to miss rare investment opportunities are turning to stock loans, which allow them to utilize more funds for stock purchases.


Another advantage of stock loans is that even if investors face a forced sale risk due to a sharp stock price drop while using margin or credit, they can easily switch products without providing additional collateral or selling stocks, and then wait for a market rebound.
