South Korea's KOSPI rises over 5% in early trading, with Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix up more than 5%

Foreign media reported that after last week's sell-off, investors returned to artificial intelligence-related investments, pushing the South Korean stock market higher, with heavyweight chip stocks performing particularly strongly. In early trading on Tuesday, the KOSPI index soared by more than 5% at one point, and both Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix saw their share prices rise by over 5%. Previously, similar U.S. technology stocks recorded significant gains on Monday; despite the decline in Nvidia (NVDA.US) shares, this did not impede the overall market rebound. This rally was also bolstered by a drop in oil prices. U.S. President Trump previously stated that there was no need to take further action against Iran. In addition, artificial intelligence startup Anthropic released a brand-new AI model on the eve of its highly anticipated Wall Street listing, further supporting market sentiment.
