Detailing KRX Market Alerts & Passive Flow Plays

By Sanghyun Park

  • HLB Life Science faces delisting if it stays in ATTENTION for four years or gets a disclaimer in an audit—barring surprises, there’s still runway before it’s a real threat.
  • HLB Inc getting ATTENTION in May looks likely, as KRX factors in frequent correction disclosures—HLB’s history with Rivoceranib filings and the failed FDA bid add to the risk.
  • If HLB Inc. gets ATTENTION in May and drops from KOSDAQ 150, VIOL (335890 KS) steps in—worth positioning ahead of late April.
