KOSPI Surges with Chip Giants
The Korean Stock Exchange (KOSPI) saw a significant increase, driven by strong performances from Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. Samsung Electronics surged 9.01%, while SK Hynix rallied 10.89%. Other chip-related stocks like Samsung Electro-Mechanics and SK Square also saw gains of 8.74% and 11.23%, respectively.
