Insiders Selling at Ecopro BM and Kum Yang

By Douglas Kim

  • Ecopro BM (247540 KS) and Kum Yang (001570 KS)’s shares are down 2.5% and 4.5%, respectively today, driven by news of insiders at these companies selling their shares.
  • It is estimated that the total amount of Ecopro BM shares sold by insiders and related parties was about 20 billion won in July by more than 12 insiders/related parties.
  • We are increasingly concerned about insiders selling at Ecopro BM and Kum Yang. Coupled with lofty valuations, we think there is a higher probability of downside risk on these names.
