Nuclear power-related stocks were broadly weaker in intraday trading on the afternoon of the 8th. KEPCO E&C led the decline with a drop in the 9% range, while other major stocks such as Doosan Enerbility, BHI, and Hyundai Engineering & Construction also fell. However, some stocks rose, showing mixed movements across individual names.

KEPCO E&C down 9.00%... Rose to 127,100 won intraday before turning lower

KEPCO E&C was trading at 116,300 won, down 11,500 won from the previous day, a decline of 9.00%. The stock had risen as high as 127,100 won during the session before falling back to 114,500 won, and is currently trading above that intraday low. Trading volume so far is 620,813 shares.

Doosan Enerbility down 5.96%... Trading below opening and intraday high of 82,600 won

Doosan Enerbility fell 5.96%, or 4,800 won, to 75,700 won. Both the opening price and the intraday high were 82,600 won, but the current price is well below that level. The intraday low was 75,200 won, with trading volume recorded at 5,047,755 shares.

BHI, Hyundai Engineering & Construction also lower... Both down in the 4% range

BHI fell 6.12%, or 3,500 won, to 53,700 won, while Wonik TNI dropped 6.67%, or 860 won, to 12,040 won. Hyundai Engineering & Construction traded at 105,300 won, down 5,600 won, or 5.05%, from the previous day.

Woory Technology and Woojin were also both down in the 4% range. Woory Technology fell 4.68%, or 580 won, to 11,810 won, while Woojin declined 4.70%, or 610 won, to 12,360 won.

Stocks down in the 3% range included Hantech (23,150 won, 3.74%), Orbitech (4,990 won, 3.67%), and KNR System (16,660 won, 3.59%). Daechang Solution and KEPCO KPS fell 1.48% and 1.13%, respectively, while Bitsro Tech was down 0.19% at 10,700 won.

S&L up 5.93%, Witech up 3.20%

On the other hand, some stocks rose. S&L climbed 5.93%, or 91 won, to 1,626 won, while Witech rose 3.20%, or 310 won, to 9,990 won.

Although many nuclear power-related stocks are declining, the size of the drops and price movements varied by stock. It is difficult to pinpoint a common cause for the declines based on current prices alone, and it remains to be seen whether intraday gains and losses will carry through to the closing prices.
