The KOSPI index (^KS11) has corrected sharply to around 5,440 as of late March 2026, down over 12% from February record highs above 6,300, primarily driven by escalated Mideast tensions—sparked by Iran-related conflict since late February—fueling energy price surges and global risk-off sentiment that hammered export-reliant sectors like semiconductors. This volatility eclipses the earlier AI-fueled rally, powered by robust earnings per share growth at Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix amid sustained memory chip demand. Bank of Korea's February decision to hold benchmark rates steady while lifting 2026 GDP growth forecast to 2.0% and inflation to 2.2% reflects optimism on export momentum. With Q1 resolution imminent by March 31, traders eye potential de-escalation, upcoming Q1 corporate earnings, and April economic data for final positioning.
