거래정지 (georae jeongji)

Trading halt

Reviewed October 15, 2026

Trading in a stock is stopped, for a few minutes or much longer.

거래정지 (georae jeongji) is a trading halt. Short halts happen around important announcements, stock splits or market-alert designations. Long suspensions can happen when a company faces a delisting review, for example after a serious accounting problem or embezzlement.

While a stock is halted you can't buy or sell it on the exchange. The halt notice on KIND says why and, when known, until when.
