Korean Stocks Plunge as Market Reopens

South Korea’s stock market suffered a sharp fall on reopening, with the KOSPI dropping 7.23% and wiping out about ₩390 trillion ($270 billion) in market value. The sell-off marks the biggest single-day decline since the August 2024 yen carry trade shock. Markets had been closed on Monday for a holiday, making this the first trading session since the rising Middle East tensions. Heavy selling was driven by fears over oil supply disruptions and growing global uncertainty.
