2024-07-04 posted by

In June, the stock market was pushed down in the middle of the month amid the lack of active buyers, but recovered and closed higher at the end of the month.

However, the stock market fell sharply in the middle of the month due to speculation that a certain financial institution, which had suffered heavy losses from its investment in foreign bonds, had conducted an operation to sell passive equity funds to take profits.
