[Market Focus] Hyosung Plunges on Investment Warning Designation

Hyosung's stock price is plunging on the Korean stock market on the morning of November 12. This comes in the wake of the Korea Exchange designating the company as an investment warning issue.

As of 9:43 a.m. on this day, Hyosung is trading at 150,800 won, down 8.22% from the previous session. In early trading, the stock even fell below the 150,000 won mark per share.

The Korea Exchange announced the previous day that Hyosung would be designated as an investment warning issue effective November 12. The reasons for this designation are: ▲ a stock price increase of more than 200% over the past year ▲ a record high closing price among the past 15 trading days ▲ the top 10 accounts by buy participation rate exceeding the Market Surveillance Committee's threshold for four or more days out of the last 15 trading days.

The Korea Exchange explained, "If the stock rises by more than 40% within two days after being designated as an investment warning issue, and the price exceeds the closing price on the day before the designation, trading may be suspended once."
