Honam Semiconductor Cluster Stocks Soar on Government Policy Signal; Kumho Construction Up 77%

During the week of July 6-10, according to the Korea Exchange, stocks linked to the government's Honam semiconductor cluster project surged sharply, with Kumho Construction rising 77.05% to 16,820 Korean won and Kumho Electric climbing 79.62% to 1,331 won. Kumho Construction hit a 52-week high of 19,380 won on July 10. The rally followed the government's decision to locate the semiconductor cluster in the Gwangju military airport area and President Lee's directive to accelerate the project. Despite the Korea Exchange designating both Kumho stocks as investment caution and investment warning issues, buying continued. Securities analysts cautioned that actual project benefits remain uncertain, as specific contract details and tender methods have not been finalized, and private sector projects typically go to larger construction firms.
