·6 t sitten# South Korea Report: Part 2 (Results and Post-Analysis) – Wednesday 15 July 2026 ### EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & MARKET TEMPERATURE The South Korean stock market rebounded overnight with a historic and spectacular relief rally after Monday's deep washout phase. Driven by a strong coordinated rise on Wall Street following fresh, cooling US inflation figures, and a general stabilization of chip sentiment, KOSPI surged over 7 %. Although the overall macroeconomic picture remains tense due to geopolitical noise around the Strait of Hormuz and oil prices around $85 per barrel, the market has proven that the preceding technical depth was met with enormous underlying buying interest. Guiding Indicator:** 🟡 **YELLOW (Hold / Await – Consolidation in progress)** Time Limit:** *Tactically valid until we see if institutional capital commits over time.* Tactical Note:** The report was delivered before 10:00 AM Norwegian time, and integrates the final and quality-assured closing prices after the closing auction in Seoul (3:30 PM local time / 8:30 AM Norwegian time). ### 1. KOSPI RESULTS AND THE HISTORIC RELIEF RALLY Closing Price:** The KOSPI index closed up a massive **+7.32 %** at **7,358.93 points** (a formidable recovery of 502.10 points from yesterday's deep levels). Intraday Movement:** Trading opened with a strong positive gap at **7,082.91 points** (+3.30 %) and immediately regained the 7,000-mark. Driven by an uninterrupted stream of short covering and institutional program buying, the index climbed all the way to an intraday high of **7,424.18 points** just before 1:00 PM local time, before consolidating steadily towards closing. ### 2. CAPITAL FLOWS AND INSTITUTIONAL REACTION After several days of one-sided risk-off, the capital flow turned significantly overnight: | Investor Group | Market Behavior Overnight | Foreigners** | **Net Buyers.** Reallocated capital into Asian technology following positive inflation signals from the US. | Institutions** | **Aggressive Accumulators.** Led the rally by sweeping the market for underlying chip stocks. | Retail** | **Profit Taking.** Partially sold out to cover losses from last week's margin calls. | Individual Stocks:** Semiconductors exploded upwards. **Samsung Electronics** climbed a strong **+6.84 %** to **281,000 won**. **SK Hynix** – which recently debuted on Nasdaq with great success – managed a spectacular comeback in Seoul and jumped a full **+9.30 %** to **2,091,000 won**, strongly supported by the fading fear of a lasting break in AI demand. ### 3. CURRENCY COMPONENT Latest Status: USD/NOK trades stably at 9.6999**, while **USD/KRW** strengthened back to **1,487.81** after struggling above the 1,530-level earlier in the week. Portfolio Assessment: The Krone's moderate weakening against the US dollar, combined with the won regaining lost ground, appears to be a solid boost. This ensures that tonight's booming stock market rally of over 7 % will directly and very noticeably translate into a large, positive price increase in your Nordnet account this afternoon. ### STRATEGIC ASSESSMENT BEFORE THE ORDER DEADLINE AT 1:00 PM Tactical Mandate for your portfolio (JPM Korea / Amundi):** We upgrade the market indicator to 🟡 **YELLOW**. > Last night's powerful response proves that the technical foundation around 6,800–7,000 points acts as a solid trampoline when global macro signals turn positive. It was absolutely correct to stay on the sidelines during Monday's unregulated panic, as we thereby avoided realizing losses at the absolute worst panic prices. Nevertheless, it is too early to declare "all clear" and empty the entire cash reserve back into the market. Geopolitics in the Middle East are still simmering, and crude oil is fighting to establish itself at a higher level. The conclusion before today's order deadline at 1:00 PM is therefore controlled defensive: We keep the existing cash portion untouched today. We will let the market confirm that it can hold these levels throughout the week before potentially re-distributing new capital. *Disclaimer: All content in this report is intended for general information only, and should not be interpreted as financial, legal, or tax advice.

I have a savings agreement of 1000 kr per month and have concluded that as a beginner, global index funds are best, such as nordnet Global Indeks fond and nordnet teknologi fond, with low costs. Long savings investment horizon.- ·1 päivä sitten# South Korea Report: Part 2 (Outcome and Post-Analysis) – Tuesday 14. July 2026 ### EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & MARKET TEMPERATURE After Monday's brutal and historic capitulation, where KOSPI collapsed below the 7,000-mark and triggered a full circuit breaker, the South Korean market experienced an extremely volatile recovery session last night. Trading started with deep uncertainty and first plunged further down to a new, critical intraday low of **6,448.86 points** – a correction of over 31 % from the year's peak. But unlike yesterday, this low triggered a fierce and coordinated bargain hunting led by institutional players. KOSPI turned up and clawed its way back into green territory by market close. The danger is far from over due to the unresolved situation in the Strait of Hormuz, but the market has proven that there is aggressive buying interest at the lowest levels. Guiding Indicator:** 🔴 **RED (Await / Hold cash in JPM Korea and Amundi)** * **Time Limit:** *Tactically locked until we see stabilization over several days.* * **Tactical Note:** The report was delivered precisely at 10:00 Norwegian time, fully updated with the final official closing rates after the closing auction in Seoul (15:00 local time / 08:00 Norwegian time). ### 1. KOSPI OUTCOME AND THE DRAMATIC REBOUND Closing Price:** The KOSPI index closed up **+0.62 %** at **6,849.43 points** (a moderate, but psychologically important recovery of 42.50 points from Monday's gloomy closing price of 6,806.93). Intraday Movement:** The market opened down at **6,769.06 points** (-0.56 %) and was sent into a staggering free fall in the morning hours, all the way down to a deep intraday low of **6,448.86 points**. From there, a massive intraday turnaround began. Driven by aggressive short covering and institutional bargain hunting, the index climbed to a peak of **6,979.92 points**, before moderating somewhat and flattening out towards the final closing auction. ### 2. CAPITAL FLOWS AND INSTITUTIONAL DYNAMICS Although foreign funds continue to reduce risk, last night's low was met by strong local resistance: | Investor Group | Market Behavior last night | Foreigners** | **Net sellers.** Continue to reduce tech exposure due to geopolitical risk reduction. | Institutions** | **Aggressive buyers.** Went in heavily to defend the chip giants at the lowest levels. | Retail** | **Sideways / Liquidation.** Many were forced to sell at the lows due to margin calls before the rebound started. | Individual Stocks:** The sector giants reacted strongly upwards after Monday's historic massacre. Samsung Electronics** led the rebound with a gain of **+5.5 %** (after having plunged over 10 % yesterday). SK Hynix** followed closely and climbed **+4.1 %** despite the ongoing pressure around the Nasdaq listing and the chip cycle. ### 3. CURRENCY COMPONENT *Latest status:** **USD/NOK** trades stably at **9.3110**, while **USD/KRW** has stabilized somewhat around **1,531.50** after Monday's sharp weakening. Portfolio assessment: The currency cross shows signs of stabilization, which means that last night's cautious market rally (+0.62 %) and the strong recovery in chip stocks will be transferred directly to your fund accounts on Nordnet. This eases the immediate pain after Monday's brutal downturn, but does not change the damaged technical picture. ### 4. INVESTOR INSIGHT & TECHNICAL EVALUATION Classic capitulation bottom? Last night's movement – a violent fall of over 5 % followed by a strong recovery on high volume – bears all the classic signs of an "intraday capitulation". That the chip stocks managed to turn around so significantly shows that investors still value the strong fundamental Q2 figures when the price is low enough. Nevertheless, the unresolved situation in the Middle East and Trump's tariff threats in the Strait of Hormuz mean that the downside risk remains abnormally high. ### TACTICAL DECISION BEFORE ORDER DEADLINE AT 13:00 Tactical mandate for your portfolio (JPM Korea / Amundi):** The market indicator is strictly kept at 🔴 **RED**. Even though last night's intraday turnaround from 6,448 points to almost 6,850 points was technically impressive, the market is still in an extremely vulnerable position. One green flicker after a week of massive collapse does not signal a full recovery. Tactical decision before the order deadline at 13:00 today is unchanged defensive: **Keep cash 100 % on the sidelines. No new purchases, and no averaging down.** We must see KOSPI manage to establish a stable platform over several days before it is justifiable to deploy new capital into this volatility. *Disclaimer: All content in this report is intended as general information only, and should not be interpreted as financial, legal, or tax advice.

- ·2 päivää sitten# South Korea Report: Part 2 (Outcome and Post-Analysis) – Monday, July 13, 2026 ### EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & MARKET TEMPERATURE The South Korean stock market was hit last night by a new financial earthquake that has sent the market into a state of complete panic. The short-term bottom formation from the end of last week was completely erased after dramatic geopolitical events in the Middle East – where the USA carried out military attacks against Iran over the weekend and the latter responded by declaring that the Strait of Hormuz would be blocked – triggered a global shockwave. Fears of a new inflation wave and escalation sent oil prices (Brent) up over 4 % to near $80 per barrel, and triggered a massive capital flight from Asian technology. Selling pressure was so intense that the Korea Exchange was forced to activate a **Level 1 Circuit Breaker** as the KOSPI index plunged by over 8 % midday. Guiding Indicator:** 🔴 **RED (Await / Maximize cash readiness)** * **Time limit:** *Strategically locked until the market finds a lasting, stable bottom.* * **Tactical note:** The report is delivered at 10:00 Norwegian time, fully updated with the final official closing rates after the 20-minute trading halt and the subsequent closing auction in Seoul. ### 1. KOSPI OUTCOME AND THE HISTORIC AFTERNOON PLUNGE Closing price:** The KOSPI index closed down a brutal **-8.25 %** at **6,859.11 points** (a massive fall of 616.83 points from Friday's level). The index has now deeply broken through the psychological 7,000-mark. * **Intraday movement:** The market opened nervously down at 7,412.03 points (-0.85 %). After an extremely brief morning test up to a peak of 7,529.07 points, the market fundamentally collapsed. At 13:34 local time, the exchange operator triggered a full trading halt as the index plummeted **-8.22 %** to an intraday low of **6,789.62 points**. The market never managed to recover, and closed completely at the bottom of the daily range. ### 2. CAPITAL FLOWS AND INSTITUTIONAL PANIC Last night's trading pattern was characterized by unregulated risk-off where international funds sold everything they owned of Korean technology to seek refuge in dollars: | Investor Group | Market Behavior Last Night | Foreigners** | **Aggressive capitulation.** Dumped large positions regardless of price, especially in semiconductors. | Institutions** | **Net sellers.** Contributed to exacerbating the fall by dumping heavier industrial stocks during the morning break. | Retail** | **Risk-takers.** Eagerly tried to catch the falling knife, but were crushed by the momentum of the fall. | * **Individual stocks:** Chip giants bore the brunt of the market fall. **Samsung Electronics** collapsed by a full **-9.65 %** to 257,500 won, despite last week's strong Q2 operating results. **SK Hynix** experienced an even more extreme nightmare; despite the company's Nasdaq debut in New York on Friday opening strongly up, the parent stock in Seoul was outright massacred and plunged over **-12 %** during the session. ### 3. THE CURRENCY COMPONENT * **Latest status:** **USD/NOK** trades stably at **9.3110**, while **USD/KRW** is significantly pressured by capital flight and trades in the weak range around **1,532.80**. Portfolio assessment:** The dollar's strength against the won provides a minimal accounting dampener for funds expressed in dollars, but the brutal price collapse of over 8 % in Seoul will hit the NAV prices of JPM Korea and Amundi MSCI Korea with enormous weight on your Nordnet account today. ### 4. INVESTOR INSIGHT & STRATEGIC EVALUATION Collapse in AI narrative and macro shock:** The combination of war fears in the Middle East and renewed speculation that the investment peak for artificial intelligence (AI) may have been reached, created the perfect storm last night. Technically, the market is in a complete unregulated free fall. The activation of a Level 1 Circuit Breaker is the ultimate proof that the technical market structure is broken. TACTICAL DECISION BEFORE ORDER DEADLINE AT 13:00 Tactical mandate for your portfolio (JPM Korea / Amundi):** The market indicator is hammered squarely back to 🔴 **RED**. > Last night's historic washout below 7,000 points means we are facing an acute systemic risk. Any form of short-term trading or bottom-fishing is associated with extreme danger. > Our strategic decision this morning is unequivocal: **We keep 100 % of capital intact on the sidelines. No new purchases, no rebalancing, and absolutely no averaging down today.** We will sit completely still and observe how Wall Street absorbs this Asian shock this afternoon, before making new assessments. *Disclaimer: All content in this report is intended for general information only, and should not be interpreted as financial, legal, or tax advice.

- ·10.7.# South Korea Report: Part 2 (Results and Post-analysis) – Friday, July 10, 2026 ### EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & MARKET TEMPERATURE The South Korean stock market was characterized last night by an extreme roller coaster ride during a very volatile week-end. The KOSPI index opened with a violent, upward gap driven by a US tech rebound. Institutional buying programs in the morning hours were so aggressive that the market broke above the 7 700-level, which triggered a **buy-side trading halt (Sidecar / Program Trading Halt)**. The joy, however, was short-lived. Throughout the afternoon, institutions abruptly turned to heavy net selling, and together with persistent foreign capital flight, most of the morning's gains were erased before market close. * **Guiding indicator:** 🟡 **YELLOW (Hold / Await – Consolidation in progress)** * **Time limit:** *Tactically valid over the weekend until Monday's Asian opening.* * **Tactical note:** The report was delivered precisely at 10:00 Norwegian time, completely cleansed of the afternoon's abrupt mood swings in Seoul after the closing auction (15:30 local time / 08:30 Norwegian time). 1. KOSPI RESULTS AND DETAILED POST-ANALYSIS * **Closing price:** The KOSPI index closed up **+2.52 %** at **7 475,94 points** (an increase of 184.03 points from Thursday's revised closing price of 7 291,91). * **Intraday movement:** The market opened strongly with a gap up at **7 552,49 points (+3.57 %)**. Driven by massive institutional optimism, the index surged further to an intraday high of **7 704,93 points** in the morning hours, where a temporary program trading halt was activated to cool down the market. The afternoon, however, offered a marked shift in sentiment; heavy profit-taking orders hammered the index down to a daily low of **7 704,93 points**, before the closing auction stabilized the market at 7 475,94. ### 2. CAPITAL FLOW AND INSTITUTIONAL DYNAMICS The dramatic swing of over 270 points from the morning's peak to the afternoon's trough was due to major players changing strategy mid-session: | Investor Group | Market Behavior Last Night | | :------------ | :------------------- | | **Foreigners** | **Still net sellers.** Used the morning's violent rally to dump shares for another 529,1 billion won. | | **Institutions** | **Aggressive at the start, quick on the sell button.** Led the morning rally, but turned to profit-taking after lunch. | | **Private (Retail)** | **Sideways.** Awaiting after the week's tough liquidation waves. | * **Individual stocks:** **Samsung Electronics** closed up **+2.52 %** at 285 000 won, but ended far below the morning's peak notations where the stock was up over 5 %. **SK Hynix**, which has been in rough waters before its Nasdaq listing, failed to hold onto its gains in the afternoon rush and closed slightly down **-0.27 %** at 2 180 000 won. ### 3. THE CURRENCY COMPONENT * **Latest status:** **USD/NOK** trades stably at **9,3110**, while **USD/KRW** has shown slight strengthening throughout the 24-hour market and is around **1 526,20**. * **Portfolio assessment:** The marginal strengthening of the South Korean won protects your assets against tonight's profit-taking in Seoul. The KOSPI increase of 2.52 % will directly and positively impact your Nordnet account today and help repair parts of the week's deep bear market hit. ### STRATEGIC ASSESSMENT FOR THE WEEKEND Tactical mandate for your portfolio (JPM Korea / Amundi):** We upgrade the indicator from red to 🟡 **YELLOW**. > That the market has managed to establish two consecutive days of green closes, and last night managed to climb above the 7 700-mark, shows that the worst liquidation pressure has subsided. Nevertheless, the afternoon's marked sell-off shows that the market still lacks sustained buying power out of conviction to start a new, long-term trend. > **Our weekend strategy remains disciplined and wait-and-see:** We will do nothing today, and keep fund cash 100 % on the sidelines over the weekend. The triggered buy-side trading halt (Sidecar) shows that the market is in technical imbalance. We will use the weekend to let the emotional fluctuations settle completely, before making a new, cold assessment of the order flow on Monday. *Next update (Part 1) will be delivered Sunday evening at 23:30 with a complete macro analysis and positioning indications before a new Asian trading week begins.* *Disclaimer: All content in this report is intended for general information only, and should not be interpreted as financial, legal, or tax advice. Investments in the stock market always involve a risk of capital loss.* For broader visual coverage of how Korean tech leaders and the semiconductor sector characterized last night's volatile trading session, you can watch this news update on [KOSPI on the Rise… 'Semiconductor Leaders' Rally / KBS 07/10/2026] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXH-Ty7o-k0 This video gives you good insight into the market reactions surrounding the triggered trading halt in Seoul.

At 13:34 local time, the exchange operator triggered a full trading halt as the index plummeted **-8.22 %** to an intraday low of **6,789.62 points**. The market never managed to recover, and closed completely at the bottom of the daily range. ### 2. CAPITAL FLOWS AND INSTITUTIONAL PANIC Last night's trading pattern was characterized by unregulated risk-off where international funds sold everything they owned of Korean technology to seek refuge in dollars: | Investor Group | Market Behavior Last Night | Foreigners** | **Aggressive capitulation.** Dumped large positions regardless of price, especially in semiconductors. | Institutions** | **Net sellers.** Contributed to exacerbating the fall by dumping heavier industrial stocks during the morning break. | Retail** | **Risk-takers.** Eagerly tried to catch the falling knife, but were crushed by the momentum of the fall. | * **Individual stocks:** Chip giants bore the brunt of the market fall. **Samsung Electronics** collapsed by a full **-9.65 %** to 257,500 won, despite last week's strong Q2 operating results. **SK Hynix** experienced an even more extreme nightmare; despite the company's Nasdaq debut in New York on Friday opening strongly up, the parent stock in Seoul was outright massacred and plunged over **-12 %** during the session. ### 3. THE CURRENCY COMPONENT * **Latest status:** **USD/NOK** trades stably at **9.3110**, while **USD/KRW** is significantly pressured by capital flight and trades in the weak range around **1,532.80**. Portfolio assessment:** The dollar's strength against the won provides a minimal accounting dampener for funds expressed in dollars, but the brutal price collapse of over 8 % in Seoul will hit the NAV prices of JPM Korea and Amundi MSCI Korea with enormous weight on your Nordnet account today. ### 4. INVESTOR INSIGHT & STRATEGIC EVALUATION Collapse in AI narrative and macro shock:** The combination of war fears in the Middle East and renewed speculation that the investment peak for artificial intelligence (AI) may have been reached, created the perfect storm last night. Technically, the market is in a complete unregulated free fall. The activation of a Level 1 Circuit Breaker is the ultimate proof that the technical market structure is broken. TACTICAL DECISION BEFORE ORDER DEADLINE AT 13:00 Tactical mandate for your portfolio (JPM Korea / Amundi):** The market indicator is hammered squarely back to 🔴 **RED**. > Last night's historic washout below 7,000 points means we are facing an acute systemic risk. Any form of short-term trading or bottom-fishing is associated with extreme danger. > Our strategic decision this morning is unequivocal: **We keep 100 % of capital intact on the sidelines. No new purchases, no rebalancing, and absolutely no averaging down today.** We will sit completely still and observe how Wall Street absorbs this Asian shock this afternoon, before making new assessments. *Disclaimer: All content in this report is intended for general information only, and should not be interpreted as financial, legal, or tax advice.

- ·10.7.# South Korea Report: Part 2 (Results and Post-analysis) – Friday, July 10, 2026 ### EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & MARKET TEMPERATURE The South Korean stock market was characterized last night by an extreme roller coaster ride during a very volatile week-end. The KOSPI index opened with a violent, upward gap driven by a US tech rebound. Institutional buying programs in the morning hours were so aggressive that the market broke above the 7 700-level, which triggered a **buy-side trading halt (Sidecar / Program Trading Halt)**. The joy, however, was short-lived. Throughout the afternoon, institutions abruptly turned to heavy net selling, and together with persistent foreign capital flight, most of the morning's gains were erased before market close. * **Guiding indicator:** 🟡 **YELLOW (Hold / Await – Consolidation in progress)** * **Time limit:** *Tactically valid over the weekend until Monday's Asian opening.* * **Tactical note:** The report was delivered precisely at 10:00 Norwegian time, completely cleansed of the afternoon's abrupt mood swings in Seoul after the closing auction (15:30 local time / 08:30 Norwegian time). 1. KOSPI RESULTS AND DETAILED POST-ANALYSIS * **Closing price:** The KOSPI index closed up **+2.52 %** at **7 475,94 points** (an increase of 184.03 points from Thursday's revised closing price of 7 291,91). * **Intraday movement:** The market opened strongly with a gap up at **7 552,49 points (+3.57 %)**. Driven by massive institutional optimism, the index surged further to an intraday high of **7 704,93 points** in the morning hours, where a temporary program trading halt was activated to cool down the market. The afternoon, however, offered a marked shift in sentiment; heavy profit-taking orders hammered the index down to a daily low of **7 704,93 points**, before the closing auction stabilized the market at 7 475,94. ### 2. CAPITAL FLOW AND INSTITUTIONAL DYNAMICS The dramatic swing of over 270 points from the morning's peak to the afternoon's trough was due to major players changing strategy mid-session: | Investor Group | Market Behavior Last Night | | :------------ | :------------------- | | **Foreigners** | **Still net sellers.** Used the morning's violent rally to dump shares for another 529,1 billion won. | | **Institutions** | **Aggressive at the start, quick on the sell button.** Led the morning rally, but turned to profit-taking after lunch. | | **Private (Retail)** | **Sideways.** Awaiting after the week's tough liquidation waves. | * **Individual stocks:** **Samsung Electronics** closed up **+2.52 %** at 285 000 won, but ended far below the morning's peak notations where the stock was up over 5 %. **SK Hynix**, which has been in rough waters before its Nasdaq listing, failed to hold onto its gains in the afternoon rush and closed slightly down **-0.27 %** at 2 180 000 won. ### 3. THE CURRENCY COMPONENT * **Latest status:** **USD/NOK** trades stably at **9,3110**, while **USD/KRW** has shown slight strengthening throughout the 24-hour market and is around **1 526,20**. * **Portfolio assessment:** The marginal strengthening of the South Korean won protects your assets against tonight's profit-taking in Seoul. The KOSPI increase of 2.52 % will directly and positively impact your Nordnet account today and help repair parts of the week's deep bear market hit. ### STRATEGIC ASSESSMENT FOR THE WEEKEND Tactical mandate for your portfolio (JPM Korea / Amundi):** We upgrade the indicator from red to 🟡 **YELLOW**. > That the market has managed to establish two consecutive days of green closes, and last night managed to climb above the 7 700-mark, shows that the worst liquidation pressure has subsided. Nevertheless, the afternoon's marked sell-off shows that the market still lacks sustained buying power out of conviction to start a new, long-term trend. > **Our weekend strategy remains disciplined and wait-and-see:** We will do nothing today, and keep fund cash 100 % on the sidelines over the weekend. The triggered buy-side trading halt (Sidecar) shows that the market is in technical imbalance. We will use the weekend to let the emotional fluctuations settle completely, before making a new, cold assessment of the order flow on Monday. *Next update (Part 1) will be delivered Sunday evening at 23:30 with a complete macro analysis and positioning indications before a new Asian trading week begins.* *Disclaimer: All content in this report is intended for general information only, and should not be interpreted as financial, legal, or tax advice. Investments in the stock market always involve a risk of capital loss.* For broader visual coverage of how Korean tech leaders and the semiconductor sector characterized last night's volatile trading session, you can watch this news update on [KOSPI on the Rise… 'Semiconductor Leaders' Rally / KBS 07/10/2026] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXH-Ty7o-k0 This video gives you good insight into the market reactions surrounding the triggered trading halt in Seoul.

- ·6 t sitten# South Korea Report: Part 2 (Results and Post-Analysis) – Wednesday 15 July 2026 ### EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & MARKET TEMPERATURE The South Korean stock market rebounded overnight with a historic and spectacular relief rally after Monday's deep washout phase. Driven by a strong coordinated rise on Wall Street following fresh, cooling US inflation figures, and a general stabilization of chip sentiment, KOSPI surged over 7 %. Although the overall macroeconomic picture remains tense due to geopolitical noise around the Strait of Hormuz and oil prices around $85 per barrel, the market has proven that the preceding technical depth was met with enormous underlying buying interest. Guiding Indicator:** 🟡 **YELLOW (Hold / Await – Consolidation in progress)** Time Limit:** *Tactically valid until we see if institutional capital commits over time.* Tactical Note:** The report was delivered before 10:00 AM Norwegian time, and integrates the final and quality-assured closing prices after the closing auction in Seoul (3:30 PM local time / 8:30 AM Norwegian time). ### 1. KOSPI RESULTS AND THE HISTORIC RELIEF RALLY Closing Price:** The KOSPI index closed up a massive **+7.32 %** at **7,358.93 points** (a formidable recovery of 502.10 points from yesterday's deep levels). Intraday Movement:** Trading opened with a strong positive gap at **7,082.91 points** (+3.30 %) and immediately regained the 7,000-mark. Driven by an uninterrupted stream of short covering and institutional program buying, the index climbed all the way to an intraday high of **7,424.18 points** just before 1:00 PM local time, before consolidating steadily towards closing. ### 2. CAPITAL FLOWS AND INSTITUTIONAL REACTION After several days of one-sided risk-off, the capital flow turned significantly overnight: | Investor Group | Market Behavior Overnight | Foreigners** | **Net Buyers.** Reallocated capital into Asian technology following positive inflation signals from the US. | Institutions** | **Aggressive Accumulators.** Led the rally by sweeping the market for underlying chip stocks. | Retail** | **Profit Taking.** Partially sold out to cover losses from last week's margin calls. | Individual Stocks:** Semiconductors exploded upwards. **Samsung Electronics** climbed a strong **+6.84 %** to **281,000 won**. **SK Hynix** – which recently debuted on Nasdaq with great success – managed a spectacular comeback in Seoul and jumped a full **+9.30 %** to **2,091,000 won**, strongly supported by the fading fear of a lasting break in AI demand. ### 3. CURRENCY COMPONENT Latest Status: USD/NOK trades stably at 9.6999**, while **USD/KRW** strengthened back to **1,487.81** after struggling above the 1,530-level earlier in the week. Portfolio Assessment: The Krone's moderate weakening against the US dollar, combined with the won regaining lost ground, appears to be a solid boost. This ensures that tonight's booming stock market rally of over 7 % will directly and very noticeably translate into a large, positive price increase in your Nordnet account this afternoon. ### STRATEGIC ASSESSMENT BEFORE THE ORDER DEADLINE AT 1:00 PM Tactical Mandate for your portfolio (JPM Korea / Amundi):** We upgrade the market indicator to 🟡 **YELLOW**. > Last night's powerful response proves that the technical foundation around 6,800–7,000 points acts as a solid trampoline when global macro signals turn positive. It was absolutely correct to stay on the sidelines during Monday's unregulated panic, as we thereby avoided realizing losses at the absolute worst panic prices. Nevertheless, it is too early to declare "all clear" and empty the entire cash reserve back into the market. Geopolitics in the Middle East are still simmering, and crude oil is fighting to establish itself at a higher level. The conclusion before today's order deadline at 1:00 PM is therefore controlled defensive: We keep the existing cash portion untouched today. We will let the market confirm that it can hold these levels throughout the week before potentially re-distributing new capital. *Disclaimer: All content in this report is intended for general information only, and should not be interpreted as financial, legal, or tax advice.

- ·1 päivä sittenThe amateur here, first chose Evli, which only went into the red, several days in a row, sold it and chose this instead because it was highest on the list.. sell this one too or wait a while Have had this one for a couple of weeks..I am also a beginner, have bought and sold/exchanged equity funds in hope of high returns. I have a savings agreement of 1000 kr per month and have concluded that as a beginner, global index funds are best, such as nordnet Global Indeks fond and nordnet teknologi fond, with low costs. Long savings investment horizon.
- ·1 päivä sitten# South Korea Report: Part 2 (Outcome and Post-Analysis) – Tuesday 14. July 2026 ### EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & MARKET TEMPERATURE After Monday's brutal and historic capitulation, where KOSPI collapsed below the 7,000-mark and triggered a full circuit breaker, the South Korean market experienced an extremely volatile recovery session last night. Trading started with deep uncertainty and first plunged further down to a new, critical intraday low of **6,448.86 points** – a correction of over 31 % from the year's peak. But unlike yesterday, this low triggered a fierce and coordinated bargain hunting led by institutional players. KOSPI turned up and clawed its way back into green territory by market close. The danger is far from over due to the unresolved situation in the Strait of Hormuz, but the market has proven that there is aggressive buying interest at the lowest levels. Guiding Indicator:** 🔴 **RED (Await / Hold cash in JPM Korea and Amundi)** * **Time Limit:** *Tactically locked until we see stabilization over several days.* * **Tactical Note:** The report was delivered precisely at 10:00 Norwegian time, fully updated with the final official closing rates after the closing auction in Seoul (15:00 local time / 08:00 Norwegian time). ### 1. KOSPI OUTCOME AND THE DRAMATIC REBOUND Closing Price:** The KOSPI index closed up **+0.62 %** at **6,849.43 points** (a moderate, but psychologically important recovery of 42.50 points from Monday's gloomy closing price of 6,806.93). Intraday Movement:** The market opened down at **6,769.06 points** (-0.56 %) and was sent into a staggering free fall in the morning hours, all the way down to a deep intraday low of **6,448.86 points**. From there, a massive intraday turnaround began. Driven by aggressive short covering and institutional bargain hunting, the index climbed to a peak of **6,979.92 points**, before moderating somewhat and flattening out towards the final closing auction. ### 2. CAPITAL FLOWS AND INSTITUTIONAL DYNAMICS Although foreign funds continue to reduce risk, last night's low was met by strong local resistance: | Investor Group | Market Behavior last night | Foreigners** | **Net sellers.** Continue to reduce tech exposure due to geopolitical risk reduction. | Institutions** | **Aggressive buyers.** Went in heavily to defend the chip giants at the lowest levels. | Retail** | **Sideways / Liquidation.** Many were forced to sell at the lows due to margin calls before the rebound started. | Individual Stocks:** The sector giants reacted strongly upwards after Monday's historic massacre. Samsung Electronics** led the rebound with a gain of **+5.5 %** (after having plunged over 10 % yesterday). SK Hynix** followed closely and climbed **+4.1 %** despite the ongoing pressure around the Nasdaq listing and the chip cycle. ### 3. CURRENCY COMPONENT *Latest status:** **USD/NOK** trades stably at **9.3110**, while **USD/KRW** has stabilized somewhat around **1,531.50** after Monday's sharp weakening. Portfolio assessment: The currency cross shows signs of stabilization, which means that last night's cautious market rally (+0.62 %) and the strong recovery in chip stocks will be transferred directly to your fund accounts on Nordnet. This eases the immediate pain after Monday's brutal downturn, but does not change the damaged technical picture. ### 4. INVESTOR INSIGHT & TECHNICAL EVALUATION Classic capitulation bottom? Last night's movement – a violent fall of over 5 % followed by a strong recovery on high volume – bears all the classic signs of an "intraday capitulation". That the chip stocks managed to turn around so significantly shows that investors still value the strong fundamental Q2 figures when the price is low enough. Nevertheless, the unresolved situation in the Middle East and Trump's tariff threats in the Strait of Hormuz mean that the downside risk remains abnormally high. ### TACTICAL DECISION BEFORE ORDER DEADLINE AT 13:00 Tactical mandate for your portfolio (JPM Korea / Amundi):** The market indicator is strictly kept at 🔴 **RED**. Even though last night's intraday turnaround from 6,448 points to almost 6,850 points was technically impressive, the market is still in an extremely vulnerable position. One green flicker after a week of massive collapse does not signal a full recovery. Tactical decision before the order deadline at 13:00 today is unchanged defensive: **Keep cash 100 % on the sidelines. No new purchases, and no averaging down.** We must see KOSPI manage to establish a stable platform over several days before it is justifiable to deploy new capital into this volatility. *Disclaimer: All content in this report is intended as general information only, and should not be interpreted as financial, legal, or tax advice.

- ·2 päivää sitten# South Korea Report: Part 2 (Outcome and Post-Analysis) – Monday, July 13, 2026 ### EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & MARKET TEMPERATURE The South Korean stock market was hit last night by a new financial earthquake that has sent the market into a state of complete panic. The short-term bottom formation from the end of last week was completely erased after dramatic geopolitical events in the Middle East – where the USA carried out military attacks against Iran over the weekend and the latter responded by declaring that the Strait of Hormuz would be blocked – triggered a global shockwave. Fears of a new inflation wave and escalation sent oil prices (Brent) up over 4 % to near $80 per barrel, and triggered a massive capital flight from Asian technology. Selling pressure was so intense that the Korea Exchange was forced to activate a **Level 1 Circuit Breaker** as the KOSPI index plunged by over 8 % midday. Guiding Indicator:** 🔴 **RED (Await / Maximize cash readiness)** * **Time limit:** *Strategically locked until the market finds a lasting, stable bottom.* * **Tactical note:** The report is delivered at 10:00 Norwegian time, fully updated with the final official closing rates after the 20-minute trading halt and the subsequent closing auction in Seoul. ### 1. KOSPI OUTCOME AND THE HISTORIC AFTERNOON PLUNGE Closing price:** The KOSPI index closed down a brutal **-8.25 %** at **6,859.11 points** (a massive fall of 616.83 points from Friday's level). The index has now deeply broken through the psychological 7,000-mark. * **Intraday movement:** The market opened nervously down at 7,412.03 points (-0.85 %). After an extremely brief morning test up to a peak of 7,529.07 points, the market fundamentally collapsed. At 13:34 local time, the exchange operator triggered a full trading halt as the index plummeted **-8.22 %** to an intraday low of **6,789.62 points**. The market never managed to recover, and closed completely at the bottom of the daily range. ### 2. CAPITAL FLOWS AND INSTITUTIONAL PANIC Last night's trading pattern was characterized by unregulated risk-off where international funds sold everything they owned of Korean technology to seek refuge in dollars: | Investor Group | Market Behavior Last Night | Foreigners** | **Aggressive capitulation.** Dumped large positions regardless of price, especially in semiconductors. | Institutions** | **Net sellers.** Contributed to exacerbating the fall by dumping heavier industrial stocks during the morning break. | Retail** | **Risk-takers.** Eagerly tried to catch the falling knife, but were crushed by the momentum of the fall. | * **Individual stocks:** Chip giants bore the brunt of the market fall. **Samsung Electronics** collapsed by a full **-9.65 %** to 257,500 won, despite last week's strong Q2 operating results. **SK Hynix** experienced an even more extreme nightmare; despite the company's Nasdaq debut in New York on Friday opening strongly up, the parent stock in Seoul was outright massacred and plunged over **-12 %** during the session. ### 3. THE CURRENCY COMPONENT * **Latest status:** **USD/NOK** trades stably at **9.3110**, while **USD/KRW** is significantly pressured by capital flight and trades in the weak range around **1,532.80**. Portfolio assessment:** The dollar's strength against the won provides a minimal accounting dampener for funds expressed in dollars, but the brutal price collapse of over 8 % in Seoul will hit the NAV prices of JPM Korea and Amundi MSCI Korea with enormous weight on your Nordnet account today. ### 4. INVESTOR INSIGHT & STRATEGIC EVALUATION Collapse in AI narrative and macro shock:** The combination of war fears in the Middle East and renewed speculation that the investment peak for artificial intelligence (AI) may have been reached, created the perfect storm last night. Technically, the market is in a complete unregulated free fall. The activation of a Level 1 Circuit Breaker is the ultimate proof that the technical market structure is broken.

- ·10.7.# South Korea Report: Part 2 (Results and Post-analysis) – Friday, July 10, 2026 ### EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & MARKET TEMPERATURE The South Korean stock market was characterized last night by an extreme roller coaster ride during a very volatile week-end. The KOSPI index opened with a violent, upward gap driven by a US tech rebound. Institutional buying programs in the morning hours were so aggressive that the market broke above the 7 700-level, which triggered a **buy-side trading halt (Sidecar / Program Trading Halt)**. The joy, however, was short-lived. Throughout the afternoon, institutions abruptly turned to heavy net selling, and together with persistent foreign capital flight, most of the morning's gains were erased before market close. * **Guiding indicator:** 🟡 **YELLOW (Hold / Await – Consolidation in progress)** * **Time limit:** *Tactically valid over the weekend until Monday's Asian opening.* * **Tactical note:** The report was delivered precisely at 10:00 Norwegian time, completely cleansed of the afternoon's abrupt mood swings in Seoul after the closing auction (15:30 local time / 08:30 Norwegian time). 1. KOSPI RESULTS AND DETAILED POST-ANALYSIS * **Closing price:** The KOSPI index closed up **+2.52 %** at **7 475,94 points** (an increase of 184.03 points from Thursday's revised closing price of 7 291,91). * **Intraday movement:** The market opened strongly with a gap up at **7 552,49 points (+3.57 %)**. Driven by massive institutional optimism, the index surged further to an intraday high of **7 704,93 points** in the morning hours, where a temporary program trading halt was activated to cool down the market. The afternoon, however, offered a marked shift in sentiment; heavy profit-taking orders hammered the index down to a daily low of **7 704,93 points**, before the closing auction stabilized the market at 7 475,94. ### 2. CAPITAL FLOW AND INSTITUTIONAL DYNAMICS The dramatic swing of over 270 points from the morning's peak to the afternoon's trough was due to major players changing strategy mid-session: | Investor Group | Market Behavior Last Night | | :------------ | :------------------- | | **Foreigners** | **Still net sellers.** Used the morning's violent rally to dump shares for another 529,1 billion won. | | **Institutions** | **Aggressive at the start, quick on the sell button.** Led the morning rally, but turned to profit-taking after lunch. | | **Private (Retail)** | **Sideways.** Awaiting after the week's tough liquidation waves. | * **Individual stocks:** **Samsung Electronics** closed up **+2.52 %** at 285 000 won, but ended far below the morning's peak notations where the stock was up over 5 %. **SK Hynix**, which has been in rough waters before its Nasdaq listing, failed to hold onto its gains in the afternoon rush and closed slightly down **-0.27 %** at 2 180 000 won. ### 3. THE CURRENCY COMPONENT * **Latest status:** **USD/NOK** trades stably at **9,3110**, while **USD/KRW** has shown slight strengthening throughout the 24-hour market and is around **1 526,20**. * **Portfolio assessment:** The marginal strengthening of the South Korean won protects your assets against tonight's profit-taking in Seoul. The KOSPI increase of 2.52 % will directly and positively impact your Nordnet account today and help repair parts of the week's deep bear market hit. ### STRATEGIC ASSESSMENT FOR THE WEEKEND Tactical mandate for your portfolio (JPM Korea / Amundi):** We upgrade the indicator from red to 🟡 **YELLOW**. > That the market has managed to establish two consecutive days of green closes, and last night managed to climb above the 7 700-mark, shows that the worst liquidation pressure has subsided. Nevertheless, the afternoon's marked sell-off shows that the market still lacks sustained buying power out of conviction to start a new, long-term trend. > **Our weekend strategy remains disciplined and wait-and-see:** We will do nothing today, and keep fund cash 100 % on the sidelines over the weekend. The triggered buy-side trading halt (Sidecar) shows that the market is in technical imbalance. We will use the weekend to let the emotional fluctuations settle completely, before making a new, cold assessment of the order flow on Monday. *Next update (Part 1) will be delivered Sunday evening at 23:30 with a complete macro analysis and positioning indications before a new Asian trading week begins.* *Disclaimer: All content in this report is intended for general information only, and should not be interpreted as financial, legal, or tax advice.
