On August 19, Coupang, Inc. rose 5.04% in regular trading, trading at $16.355/share, with turnover of $61.27 million.

On the news front, reports emerged that the Trump administration expressed dissatisfaction with South Korea's slow progress on its $350 billion investment commitment and specifically cited the treatment of Coupang in Korea as a source of bilateral friction. South Korean Industry Minister Kim Jung-wan met with US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on August 17 to discuss investment matters, while the US reportedly scaled back joint military exercises partly due to accumulated economic grievances including the Coupang issue.

The diplomatic pressure adds to a series of developments favorable to Coupang's regulatory outlook: a US congressional report in early July accused Korean regulators of unfair enforcement against the company, and Korean courts previously suspended the Fair Trade Commission's designation of Coupang's founder as the group's controlling entity. The company is also accelerating its cross-border Rocket Jikgu service, adding over 600 overseas brands this year across multiple categories.
