The KOSDAQ index surged on the 3rd, prompting the trigger of a buy sidecar.

At the time of the trigger, the KOSDAQ 150 futures rose 75.80 points (6.41%) and the KOSDAQ 150 index increased by 38.12 points (3.13%) from the previous session.

As of 10:37 a.m. when the sidecar was lifted, the KOSDAQ index stood at 743.92, up 3.36% (24.16 points).
