Founded in 2010 by Bom Kim, a former Harvard Business School student, Coupang, Inc. (CPNG) has rapidly become South Korea’s e-commerce leader, often earning the title of the “Amazon of South Korea.” Shares of CPNG have soared 46.5% over the past nine months and 42.1% year-to-date to close the last trading session at $23.
A question lingers in investors’ minds despite this impressive run: can Coupang sustain its upward momentum?
