South Korean equities remain under EXTREME PRESSURE:
The KOSPI fell -0.81% on Monday, to its lowest level since February.
The KOSDAQ declined another -0.82%, returning to levels last seen during the December 2024 martial law crisis.
This comes as foreign investors recorded their 7th consecutive session of selling Korean equities.
The KOSPI is down -47% from its June peak, while the KOSDAQ has plunged -48% from its April peak, wiping out more than -315 trillion won, or ~$233.8 billion, in market capitalization.
Meanwhile, market breadth continues to deteriorate, with 463 KOSDAQ stocks hitting 52-week lows, while average daily trading value has collapsed -53% since the first half of the year.
Foreign investors have now SOLD more than -4.35 trillion won, or over -$3 billion, in KOSDAQ stocks since July.
Market carnage in South Korea continues.
