Shares of Taekyung BK, a company that produces key materials for synthetic graphite, are showing strong performance. This appears to be due to the spotlight on the company's exclusive domestic supply contract with a leading U.S. petroleum coke company, following the United States' decision to impose heavy tariffs on Chinese graphite.


As of 10:11 a.m. on July 18, shares of Taekyung BK were trading at 5,290 won, up 4.55% from the previous day.


This is believed to be influenced by the U.S. Department of Commerce's preliminary decision to impose a 93.5% anti-dumping tariff on Chinese graphite, a core material for battery anodes. The Department of Commerce is scheduled to make its final decision on December 5.
