[THE INVESTOR] On Sept. 27, KCC (002380) increased 1.81% to 394,500 won (US$359.16). It had declined 8.28% through the past month. Standard deviation, which indicates variableness, records 1.4% on the same period of time over one month.

Compared with its close competitors within the same industry, KOSPI, since the monthly volatility of KCC was the lowest, the earnings rate over one month was also relatively lower than that of its peer group. Over the recent month, the return-on-risk, the return on investment with consideration about risk, was -5.9%. Though the volatility was the lowest among its peer group, the return-on-risk was low as stock price decline. Moreover, compared with the KOSPI industry, the return-on-risk is below the industrial mean, 0.1, and thus it is hard to say that the industrial comparison performance was positive.
