South Korean Won Falls to Over 3-Week Low

The South Korean won traded around 1,545 per dollar, extending losses near its lowest level in over three weeks as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East lifted oil prices and boosted demand for the US dollar. The United States launched fresh strikes on Iranian military targets after Tehran attacked shipping near the Strait of Hormuz, while uncertainty over renewed negotiations between the two countries continued to fuel investor caution. Markets also remained focused on the Federal Reserve’s annual policy forum in Sintra and key US labor market data due later this week, with expectations for higher-for-longer US interest rates supporting the greenback. Meanwhile, investors monitored President Lee Jae Myung’s announcement of large-scale investments in semiconductors, AI, and data centers, as the government and major chipmakers prepared to unveil long-term investment plans aimed at strengthening South Korea’s advanced technology sector.
