KOSPI Attempts to Recover 8,000 Mark Fueled by Easing Middle East Tensions
On the 12th, the domestic stock market continued its rebound trend, driven by expectations of easing Middle East tensions and the strength of US semiconductor stocks, increasing the likelihood of the KOSPI attempting to recover the 8,000 mark. Market attention is primarily focused on the easing of geopolitical uncertainty. Overnight, the New York stock market widened its gains after US President Donald Trump announced he had canceled plans for an airstrike on Iran and that ceasefire negotiations were in the final coordination stage. While concerns about war escalation can lead to soaring oil prices and a flight to safety, conversely, as the possibility of conflict resolution increases, investor sentiment tends to revive quickly. This time, the market reflected the possibility of war risk mitigation more significantly than inflationary pressures.
