Seoul Shares Rise to Three-Month High as South Korean Chip Stocks Rally Tracking U.S. Peers Amid Tariff Concerns

Seoul's stock market experienced fluctuations over the past two days, with shares initially ending lower due to losses in the technology sector and concerns over tariffs. However, the market rebounded, opening higher and rising to a three-month high driven by gains in tech stocks. South Korean chip stocks notably rallied, tracking the performance of their U.S. counterparts ahead of Nvidia's earnings report. Following Nvidia's robust earnings announcement, Seoul shares opened higher again, reflecting positive investor sentiment in the technology sector. Key indices involved include the Kospi and Kosdaq.
