KOKEN and SHIGEMATSU WORKS surge on speculation over suspected Hantavirus cluster infection
KOKEN LTD. <7963> and SHIGEMATSU WORKS CO.,LTD. <7980> have surged significantly. The World Health Organization (WHO) announced by the 4th that Hantavirus infections had occurred aboard a cruise ship sailing in the Atlantic Ocean, resulting in three deaths so far. After it was revealed that the virus was identified as the Andes Hantavirus, a strain with documented cases of human-to-human transmission, investor interest appears to be growing in both companies as well as AIRTECH JAPAN,LTD. <6291> and Precision System Science Co., Ltd. <7707> as hygiene-related stocks.
