KCE stock (ISIN TH0237010005) traded as one of Thailand's more actively shorted names, with short-selling turnover of THB 71,261,675 and 1,092,700 shares on September 17, 2026.

Short selling stays visible

That trading flow mattered because KAOHOON INTERNATIONAL showed KCE on its top 30 short-selling list for September 17, 2026. The stock accounted for 6.52 percent of the day's short-selling value in that table.

Thai desks stay constructive

On September 18, 2026, LINE TODAY quoted Bualuang Securities with a TRADING BUY call and a target price of THB 70 for KCE. The same report said core profit could reach THB 1.44 billion in 2026, THB 2.07 billion in 2027 and THB 2.30 billion in 2028, implying 78 percent growth in 2026 and 43.9 percent in 2027.

That is the key comparison for investors: the 2026 profit estimate of THB 1.44 billion is paired with a 2027 estimate of THB 2.07 billion, a gain of THB 630 million year on year.

Price and trading setup

The reference price was not substantiated in the available sources, so the current body of evidence centers on the reported short-selling flow and the broker outlook from September 18, 2026. The SET-linked trading data still point to active positioning around the name.
