On the 20th, as the domestic stock market plunged, nuclear power-related stocks, including Doosan Enerbility, also showed a broad decline.
As of 12:59 p.m. on this day, the KOSPI recorded 6,541.99, down 278.61 points (4.08%) from the previous trading day, while the KOSDAQ fell 38.89 points (4.91%) to 752.95, marking a sharp decline in both major indices. With recent increases in market volatility, selling pressure has been spreading across all sectors.
Under these market conditions, representative nuclear power stocks also recorded significant drops. Doosan Enerbility, which carries a large market capitalization weight, traded at 64,400 won, down 7.60% from the previous trading day, and Woori Technology also fell 7.61% to 9,100 won.
In addition, most major nuclear power theme stocks failed to avoid weakness. Korea Electric Power Corporation (-3.08%), KEPCO E&C (-5.71%), KEPCO KPS (-1.95%), Soosan Industries (-2.63%), Woojin (-4.89%), Keumwha PSC (-2.33%), Orbitech (-4.25%), and Woojin Entec (-5.03%) were all heading toward a lower close.
The market expects that the future direction of nuclear power stocks will be influenced by changes in supply and demand, whether the index's decline narrows, and investment sentiment toward risk assets. Investors' attention is focused on whether there will be a rebound in the afternoon session.
