LIG Defense & Aerospace (079550) surged early in the trading session, triggering the Volatility Interruption (VI).

According to the Korea Exchange (KRX), the company's stock triggered a dynamic VI at 9:00:12 a.m. on the 16th, which was lifted at 9:02:16 a.m.

As of 9:12 a.m. on the same day, the stock is trading at 1,000,000 won, up 155,000 won (+18.34%) from the previous trading day. It marks the first time in about two months, since May 4, that the stock has reclaimed the 1 million won level.

As soon as the market opened, a wave of buying pressure allowed the stock to swiftly retake the 1 million won milestone. Even after the VI was lifted, the upward trend continued, drawing investors' attention.

However, given the sharp surge early on, the key point to watch going forward is whether the upward momentum will be sustained until the closing price or if profit-taking sell-offs will emerge.
