South Korean stock exchange to review Hyundai deals related to Apple talks

Next week, the South Korean stock exchange will launch an investigation to find out if Hyundai Motor executives may have used classified information to trade shares following reports of a partnership with Apple. This was announced by a source citing a representative of the exchange.

Hyundai shares jumped 21% between the initial announcement of talks with Apple and an announcement last week that the talks had ended.

According to a representative of the exchange, as a result of the check, it should become clear whether there are any suspicions of an offense. The results of the check will be transmitted to the regulator.

As a reminder, last week the company said it was not in talks with Apple on autonomous vehicles. However, a month earlier, information appeared that negotiations were at an early stage. Between the two reports, twelve Hyundai executives sold approximately 3,400 shares for approximately $ 753,000.
