Investor Impact: Investors holding or planning to trade in the 13 newly listed securities should be aware of increased margin requirements and potential price volatility monitoring.

Market Operations: The movement of 6 securities out of ST-ASM (with 3 moving to ESM and 2 to LT-ASM) indicates escalation of surveillance measures for those specific stocks, suggesting continued concerns about price behavior.
