Markets more volatile than US, and you get taxed pretty hard (by both US and Korea) plus there are many restrictions that prevent you from trading online (인증서 digital id registration software that may not work outside Korea).
Fuck KRX.

They won’t go after any big fellas. It would probably be some random regard from somewhere like WSB who shorts 5 shares of Kia or LG because some on Twitter told him it was time.
They should also investigate all of their families income to make sure they didn’t profit from it. Suck it k bear

Can’t read the article… are they just banning shorting Korean stocks, or are they banning – for Korean residents – to short stuff anywhere in the world? If it’s the former, it’s really not a big deal. The only market really worth shorting in is the US market…

Does shorting stocks actually provide any value? I know it cns generate profit, but does it stabilise the market in some way? Interested in any existing comparisons to nations that have already banned it
