Peptron (087010) staged a sharp rebound in the afternoon session, recovering the 140,000-won level.

As of 3:16 p.m. on the 28th, Peptron is trading at 147,800 won, up 18,900 won (14.66%) from the previous trading day.

Earlier in the session, the stock fell below the 120,000-won level, facing downward pressure. However, heading into the afternoon, buy orders rapidly flowed in, quickly widening gains to reclaim the 140,000-won level before surging to the 147,000-won range.

Notably, even as the broader market showed a strong downward trend with both KOSPI and KOSDAQ plunging, Peptron recorded a double-digit gain, displaying distinct strength. The KOSPI fell below the 2,500 level during the session, and sidecars and circuit breakers were triggered on the KOSPI market, significantly dampening investor sentiment.

With selling pressure spreading across the broader market, attention is now focused on whether Peptron can sustain its upward momentum until the close, given its rapid rebound from intraday lows.
