<li>In this insight, we discuss numerous gap trades involving Korean preferred and common shares in 3Q 2024.</li>
<li>The recent push for Korea Value Up program has helped to push up prices of numerous Korean preferred stocks including <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/hyundai-motor-co-44d5ac4e-94e3-4be9-b34f-5f3155e7a3d6" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:26936:1" rel="noopener">Hyundai Motor (005385 KS)</a>. </li>
