Kospi closed? (Nov12/'09)

  1. The Korean exchange hasn't opened this morning, but the exchange doesn't list today as a holiday.

    Anyone know what is up?

    November options expire today ... what a terrible day for an outage if that's what this is ...

    Opening delayed by one hour due to nationwide college examination.
     
  3. Much thks ...
     
  4. Ehhh ... I didn't get the part about also staying open another hour. Is this info available on the Korean Stock Exchange website? Otherwise, how best for us non-Korean speakers to stay on top of schedule changes like this?

    I had a great day trading Kospi, but knowing the schedule would have removed a lot of stress.

    Did you like the close out on the Nov options.
