周二,基准韩国综合股价指数上涨1.2%,至2485点,在交易员评估韩国最新通胀数据后,从前一交易日的下跌中反弹。2024年11月,该国的年通货膨胀率从上个月的45个月低点1.3%微升至1.5%,尽管低于1.7%的市场预期。尽管有所上升,但通货膨胀率连续第三个月保持在韩国央行2%的目标范围内,支持其最近降低利率的决定。在指数权重股中,电池和健康股涨幅最大,包括SK海力士(1%)、三星电子(0.8%)、SK生物科学(2.4%)、三星生物制品(1.4%)和Celltrion(0.8%)。相反,电池制造商LG Energy Solution下跌0.9%,此前有消息称通用汽车计划出售其在密歇根州LG-GM合资工厂的股份。
The benchmark KOSPI index climbed 1.2% to 2,485 points on Tuesday, rebounding from losses in the previous session as traders assessed South Korea's latest inflation data. The country’s annual inflation rate inched higher to 1.5% in November 2024 from a 45-month low of 1.3% in the previous month, although below market expectations of 1.7%. Despite the uptick, inflation remained within the Bank of Korea's 2% target range for the third consecutive month, supporting its recent decision to lower interest rates. Among index heavyweights, battery and health stocks were among the top gainers, including SK Hynix (1%), Samsung Electronics (0.8%), SK Bioscience (2.4%), Samsung Biologics (1.4%) and Celltrion (0.8%). Conversely, the battery maker LG Energy Solution fell 0.9%, following news that General Motors plans to unload its stake in an LG-GM joint venture plant in Michigan.
