On the 14th, Woori Technology (032820) saw its psychologically important support level of 10,000 won breached during trading, but closed above the 10,000-won mark as bargain-hunting buyers stepped in.

That day, Woori Technology finished trading at 10,340 won, down 350 won (3.27%) from the previous session. Selling pressure continued from the opening bell, pushing the stock down to as low as 9,810 won at one point, before partially recovering its losses to close back above the 10,000-won level.

Amid growing volatility across nuclear power-related stocks recently, Woori Technology has also failed to show clear strength. As geopolitical risks come back into focus, investor sentiment has contracted, leading to a continued stock price correction. The share price, which was at the 20,000-won level in May, has now dropped to the low 10,000-won range. In other words, it has halved in just two months.

The broader market also experienced significant volatility on the same day. During intraday trading, the KOSDAQ market plunged sharply enough to trigger a sell-side circuit breaker, which temporarily suspended program sell orders. Although losses were later trimmed, the KOSDAQ index closed at 783.98, down 15.38 points (1.92%) from the previous session.

Investors are closely watching the impact of recent external factors and geopolitical risks on the domestic stock market. Nuclear power stocks are also likely to continue experiencing short-term volatility in line with broader shifts in market sentiment, drawing keen attention to future price movements.
