In the domestic stock market on the 9th, stocks related to next-generation 'all-solid-state battery' technology showed mixed trends with differentiated movements by company during the trading session. Even amid expectations of a global commercialization race, investors are engaging in selective buying, carefully weighing corporate performance and technological competitiveness.

As of the morning of that day, representative all-solid-state battery stocks showed strength. ISU Specialty Chemical was traded at 61,300 won, up 1.83% from the previous trading day, while Hanong Chemical rose 1.42% to 12,130 won. In addition, stocks such as Ecopro Advanced Materials (1.54%), SK IE Technology (0.97%), LG Energy Solution (0.95%), and SFA Engineering (0.82%) each posted gains, continuing the buying momentum.

Battery equipment and materials companies also generally trended higher. Mico (2.94%), Sukgyung AT (2.86%), Nintech (2.50%), Dongwha Enterprise (1.60%), and Lake Materials (1.49%) recorded gains. On the other hand, Daejoo Electronic Materials (-0.81%), Chemprocess (-0.73%), Kowintech (-0.51%), and Mintech (-1.36%) failed to avoid downward trends, clearly showing polarization among individual stocks.

The market analyzed that as the competition to commercialize all-solid-state batteries among global battery companies intensifies, interest in domestic companies supplying core materials and equipment is continuing. All-solid-state batteries, which can significantly improve safety and energy density compared to existing lithium-ion batteries, are drawing attention as a key technology for the electric vehicle and energy storage system (ESS) markets.

The macro environment is also positive. Although the U.S. stock market overnight showed mixed trends due to heightened geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and Iran, mid- to long-term growth expectations for AI and advanced industries were maintained. This trend is interpreted to have spread to the domestic stock market, driving interest in next-generation battery and advanced materials-related stocks.

However, the securities industry emphasizes that the all-solid-state battery market is still in the early stages of commercialization. Analysts note that depending on actual mass production schedules, technology development achievements, and customer acquisition, stock price trends may diverge significantly among companies. Accordingly, some advise that before investing, it is necessary to comprehensively evaluate individual companies' technological competitiveness, performance, and order status.
