Good news turned into bad news! Korean stocks crashed again until halted (meltdown)


The 4 trillion storage investment that was praised over the weekend immediately became a reason to sell at the opening. The Kospi index plunged more than 3% at the opening, immediately triggering trading curbs. Samsung and SK Hynix both fell more than 5%.
This year, foreign investors have withdrawn 950 billion US dollars from Korean stocks, and only rely on retail investors using leverage to hold on. Once it drops, it easily triggers a chain liquidation. Fortunately, A stocks held up, the STAR 50 Index actually rose amid the negative trend. #SKHYNIX $SKHYNIX ‌

Kospi’s opening circuit breaker plot feels far too familiar. Foreign capital has already fled by nearly a hundred billion dollars, propped up only by retail leverage—once it breaks, chain liquidations are unavoidable. The 40 trillion won storage investment that SK Hynix touted over the weekend turned into a bearish factor at the open, and this sentiment flip is even more thrilling than DeFi mining.

Foreign investors have withdrawn $95 billion from the South Korean stock market this year. The selling pressure is no joke.
However, the STAR 50 has managed to rise against the trend. The A-share market looks promising, with funds seeking a safe haven.
