South Korea’s semiconductor-driven export surge remains the dominant force shaping EWY sentiment, with chip shipments rising over 200% year-over-year in August and early September 2026 on sustained AI infrastructure demand from major cloud providers. This momentum has lifted consensus 2026 GDP forecasts to 3–4% across government, KDI, ING, and Moody’s estimates, while pushing cumulative exports past the prior full-year record well ahead of schedule. EWY, with more than 50% exposure to technology names led by SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics, has delivered roughly 85–90% year-to-date gains amid elevated memory prices and equipment investment. Traders are monitoring September export flash data, any moderation in DRAM/HBM pricing, and Bank of Korea policy signals for clues on whether the upcycle extends or base effects begin to weigh on near-term equity performance.

Only prices achieved during the regular trading hours of the primary exchange on which the listed security trades (typically 9:30 AM – 4:00 PM ET) will be considered. Prices occurring during pre-market or after-hours trading will not qualify.
Prices will be used exactly as published by Pyth, without rounding.
In the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, or similar corporate action affecting the listed company during the listed time frame, this market will resolve based on split-adjusted prices as displayed on Pyth.
The target price will be adjusted proportionally to reflect any stock splits. Resolution will be based on the historical price data as shown on Pyth after any adjustments have been applied.
The resolution source for this market is Pyth — specifically, the South Korea ETF (EWY) "High" and "Low" prices available at https://pythdata.app/explore/Equity.US.EWY%2FUSD, with the chart settings configured for 1-minute candles.
Historical 1-minute candles may be accessed by appending a Unix timestamp (seconds) to the Pyth chart URL using the "t=" parameter. Any timestamp within the listed market time frame may be used to view the relevant candle data (e.g., https://pythdata.app/explore/Equity.US.EWY%2FUSD?t=1773432000)
If the relevant Pyth data is unavailable due to a system outage, data failure, or other technical disruption that prevents verification of the required 1-minute candle data, the official daily high/low price published by the primary exchange on which the listed security trades will be used to determine whether the listed price was reached during the applicable trading session.
