                                        Stock Market

In March 2021, the KOSPI increased 1.61% from the
previous month to close at 3,061.42 points, maintaining
a modest upward trend for two consecutive months. In
the aspect of technical analysis, it is facing a technical
correction stage around 3,000 point after reaching all-
time high.

With a positive outlook on the global economic growth,
stock markets of major countries showed a slight rise.
While there are no decisive issues to influence the
recent market trend, potential buying and selling are in
a tight balance.

In March 2021, the KOSPI seems to continue a
circulatory rally among sectors. However, there is an
expectation on another rally as well.
