TechFlow news, November 8 — According to the Korea Economic Daily, the Financial Services Commission (FSS) of South Korea announced it will strengthen monitoring of financial markets, particularly focusing on stocks related to Trump and the increasing volatility in the cryptocurrency sector. This decision follows the latest U.S. election results and the statement from the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) of the U.S. Federal Reserve.
At a financial situation review meeting held the same day, FSS Commissioner Lee Bok-hyun emphasized that strict measures will be taken against market manipulation and the spread of unfounded rumors if evidence is found. Lee stated, "We will enhance monitoring of market fluctuations in stocks related to Trump's election and crypto assets such as Bitcoin. Upon detecting any signs of unfair trading—including rumor creation and dissemination, front-running, or stock price manipulation—we will take a zero-tolerance approach and impose severe penalties."
