Retail Investors’ Orders of 100 Million Won or More Hit Record 1.19 Million Amid KOSPI Rally

Last month, stock orders worth 100 million won or more in the Korean market reached 1.19 million, the highest level on record. The increase came as the KOSPI surpassed the 7,000 mark for the first time and continued its rally, while individual investors handling large sums became more active in trading. According to the report, about one-third of all large orders of 100 million won or more were concentrated in Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. The figures show that high-value orders from retail investors were focused on major semiconductor stocks during the market rally. The reported data covers last month’s order activity. Source: mk.co.kr
