We take a look at the resilience of green energy stocks amid a broad-based stock market downturn in the first half of the year.
- Alternative energy shares have been resilient in the face of a stock market downturn

- We also discuss the difficulties of navigating contradictory disclosure rules in South Korea.
In this episode of ESG360, we take a look at the resilience of green energy stocks amid a broad-based stock market downturn in the first half of the year. A further interesting point is that solar stocks have performed better than wind as some of these companies are not yet profitable highlighting the challenge investors face in their efforts to advance the green transition. We also cover the development of carbon markets in Japan and part 3 of our ESG in East Asia series, which focuses on navigating social data in South Korea and reveals the industries that disclose the most data.
