South Korea stocks fall 4% as tech heavyweights follow plunge in Wall Street's AI-linked names
• South Korean stocks plummeted 4% on Friday, driven by a sharp decline in tech heavyweights following a sell-off of AI-linked names on Wall Street. • The downturn extended across Asia-Pacific markets, with Hong Kong's Hang Seng index dropping 0.46% and the CSI 300 declining 0.29%. • This shift reflects a broader market rotation away from chip stocks, which paradoxically helped the Dow Jones Industrial Average reach a record close.
