Amid a historic plunge in the KOSPI and KOSDAQ driven by geopolitical risks and heightened tensions in the Middle East, Rokit Healthcare (376900) is drawing market attention by posting double-digit gains on the Nextrade (NXT) market after the regular trading session closed.

Modest Regular-Session Gain... Breaks 40,000 Won on NXT

On the 13th, Rokit Healthcare closed the regular session at 36,700 won, up 50 won (0.14%) from the previous trading day. As of 3:51 p.m., in the NXT after-hours extended trading market, the stock was trading at 41,200 won, a sharp jump of 4,550 won (12.41%) from the previous session, breaking the 40,000-won threshold.

Both Major Indices Post Historic Plunge

On the same day, the domestic stock market saw the KOSPI plummet 669.01 points (8.94%) to close at 6,806.93 as geopolitical anxiety spread. The KOSDAQ also tumbled 38.07 points (4.54%) to finish at 799.36, pressured by escalating Middle East tensions.

While the vast majority of stocks were unable to escape the sell-off and fear spread across the broader market, Rokit Healthcare stood in stark contrast, posting a significant gain on the alternative trading venue after hours.
