[Stock Market News for the 9th] Emerging from the shock of 'Black Monday' the previous day, the domestic stock market is showing a strong rebound, with nuclear power-related stocks simultaneously exhibiting strong performance.

According to the Korea Exchange on the 9th, buy-side sidecars were triggered consecutively on the KOSPI and KOSDAQ, rapidly restoring investor sentiment. As the risk appetite that had contracted during the previous day's sharp decline revives, a massive influx of buying is occurring, centered around nuclear power stocks.

■ Leading Nuclear Power Stocks Rise with Surging Trading Volume As of this morning, Doosan Enerbility, a leading nuclear power stock, traded at 89,900 won, up 4.78% from the previous trading day. It surged to 92,400 won during the session, demonstrating a strong upward trend, and the trading volume exceeded 2.38 million shares, concentrating investor interest.

Companies related to nuclear power equipment and control systems also joined the upward trend. Woori Technology traded at 13,260 won, up 2.00%, and Orbitech traded at 7,170 won, up 4.67%. BHI also recorded 61,700 won, up 3.18%, reflecting expectations of benefits from nuclear power plants.

■ KEPCO Affiliates and Maintenance Stocks Show Uniform Strength Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) affiliates also showed strong performance. KEPCO Industrial Development rose 5.43% to 12,610 won, KEPCO Engineering & Construction recorded 118,700 won, up 2.95%, and KEPCO KPS also climbed 3.81%. Buying is spreading across the board to stocks related to nuclear power maintenance and operation.

Nuclear power equipment and maintenance stocks also made significant advances. Iljin Power rose 5.99% to 12,200 won, and Woojin Entec recorded 21,050 won, surging 7.89%. With Woojin (up 6.78%) and Daechang Solution (up 1.42% to 1,925 won), investor sentiment is expanding throughout the entire nuclear power ecosystem.

■ Complex Favorable Factors: Policy Benefits and AI Power Demand The market analyzes that the strength of nuclear power stocks today is not merely a technical rebound, but the result of a combination of the government's energy policy, prospects for expanding overseas nuclear power businesses such as in the Czech Republic, and expectations for increased global energy infrastructure investment.

In particular, although the schedule for Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's visit to South Korea has concluded, expectations for expanded AI infrastructure investment persist. The analysis suggests that the increase in power demand driven by the expansion of AI data centers could further highlight the importance of the nuclear power industry in the long term.

However, the securities industry advised that there is a possibility of profit-taking sell-offs following the short-term surge, urging caution regarding the expansion of volatility in individual stocks.
