Samsung Electro-Mechanics (009150) closed higher on the 2nd, ahead of the Foundation Day holiday. Market attention is focused on whether the upward trend will continue on the 6th, the first trading day after the holiday.

On the 2nd, Samsung Electro-Mechanics finished trading at 1,577,000 won, up 10,000 won (1.02%) from the previous day. The gain exceeded the index rise of the KOSPI, which also climbed that day.

The KOSPI closed at 7,003.74, up 32.39 points (0.46%) from the previous trading day. It entered the holiday having recovered the 7,000 level from the previous day's close of 6,971.35.

On the 6th, the first trading day after the holiday, the key point of interest is whether Samsung Electro-Mechanics will push for further gains in the 1.57 million won range. Based on the day's closing price, a gap of 23,000 won remains to reach 1.6 million won, making an approach to that price level another major watching point.

Attention is also on whether the KOSPI will continue trading above the 7,000 level. Whether the recovered index level can be maintained, along with Samsung Electro-Mechanics' future stock price trajectory, remains to be seen.
