The Financial Services Commission (FSC) said on Nov. 12, 2026 on its website
that internet and social media reports claiming additional stimulus measures for
the KOSDAQ to be announced on Nov. 13 are false. The FSC warned that spreading
baseless rumors may constitute unfair trading under the Capital Markets Act and
that strict action will be taken if illegal conduct is confirmed. The Korea
Exchange (KRX) and Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) issued similar denials.
Messages circulated on Nov. 12 that the Blue House, FSC and KRX would unveil
policies to boost the KOSDAQ; investors should not trade on unverified reports
and should rely on official releases.
