KOSPI closes at six-month low as chipmakers slide
Original: South Korea's KOSPI closes at 6-month low as chipmakers slump on AI worries
South Korea's benchmark KOSPI index closed at its lowest level in six months, dragged down by a sharp slump in chipmaker shares. The decline reflects growing investor concern about the outlook for artificial intelligence-related demand, which has been a key driver of the country's semiconductor sector and broader market in recent years.
Why now: Fears that AI-driven chip demand may be slowing are hitting South Korea's semiconductor-heavy stock market.
