Reviewed by Simply Wall St
The South Korea stock market has moved higher in two straight sessions, advancing more than 125 points or 5 percent in that span. The KOSPI now sits just beneath the 2,570-point plateau although it may be stuck in neutral on Thursday due to mixed global forecasts and lingering concerns about the health of the U.S. economy. In this environment, identifying growth companies with high insider ownership can be a prudent strategy for investors looking for stability and potential upside. Here are three KRX-listed growth companies where insiders hold up to 33% ownership, signaling strong confidence from those closest to the business operations.
