South Korea's Kospi plunges nearly 8%
Sharp selloff in Korean equities, led by AI chip profit-taking, sets the stage for Friday’s bounce.
SK hynix's Q2 2026 net profit catapulted to 94 trillion won ($64B), a 1,242% YoY jump, fueled by AI memory demand and a 20 trillion won Kioxia stake sale. The results, coupled with a 40 trillion won capex plan, challenge market skepticism about the AI investment cycle's durability and re-rate memory stocks.

South Korea’s Kospi crashed 6.6% after the Bank of Korea unexpectedly hiked rates for the first time since 2023, triggering a mass sell-off in AI chip stocks.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average set a new record at 52,900.07, while softer-than-expected US jobs data quelled rate-hike anxiety. Asian markets surged on the news, with the Kospi bouncing 2.8% from a steep selloff, as oil prices below pre-Iran-war levels bolstered the disinflation narrative.
