The benchmark KOSPI fell nearly 1% to around 7,590 on Wednesday, hitting its lowest level in a month as a broad sell-off in semiconductor stocks followed overnight losses on Wall Street. Chipmakers came under pressure after investors questioned the sustainability of the AI-driven spending boom despite Samsung Electronics’ strong quarterly earnings, dragging global semiconductor shares lower. Investors also remained cautious as escalating tensions in the Middle East boosted oil prices and dampened global risk appetite following fresh US strikes on Iran and attacks near the Strait of Hormuz. Losses were led by Samsung Electronics (-0.9%), LG Energy Solution (-2.8%), HD Hyundai Heavy Industries (-4.2%), Hanwha Aerospace (-6.0%), and Doosan Enerbility (-3.9%). Meanwhile, South Korean authorities said they would closely monitor risks to market stability as heightened volatility in heavyweight chip stocks and single-stock leveraged ETFs continued to fuel sharp market swings.
