South Korean Shares Extend Decline

The benchmark KOSPI fell more than 1% to around 7,400 on Monday, extending losses from the previous session, as rising global bond yields and inflation concerns triggered risk-off sentiment. Investor sentiment weakened after a sharp jump in US Treasury yields reinforced expectations that the Federal Reserve could keep interest rates higher for longer, while escalating Middle East tensions pushed oil prices higher and added to inflation worries. Declines were seen in Hyundai Motor (-6.3%), SK Square (-3.3%), LG Energy Solution (-4.8%), HD Hyundai Heavy Industries (-5.5%), Doosan Enerbility (-3.9%), and SK Hynix (-0.3%). At the same time, uncertainty over a planned strike at Samsung Electronics weighed on sentiment, raising concerns over disruptions to semiconductor production and exports. The government warned the strike could hurt the broader economy and said it may consider emergency arbitration measures if labor-management talks fail ahead of the planned walkout later this week.
