Market Chats About What Really Went Down with HPSP This Morning
- This morning’s HPSP (403870 KS) situation began with Maekyung’s report, indicating Crescendo PE contacted local bankers for the controlling stake sale.
- The surge in HPSP’s stock price after Maekyung’s report suggests Crescendo PE’s tacit approval, implying their involvement in the news’s emergence.
- Despite the likely confirmed sale of Crescendo PE’s stake, timing remains uncertain due to disclosure rules. Continued monitoring is vital, considering potential market reactions later.
