[South Korean Retail Investors 'Sell at the Peak' in U.S. Stocks, Offloading Over 1 Trillion Won in Overseas Shares This Week]
BlockBeats News, June 7: According to data released today by Yonhap News Agency, South Korean retail investors sold over 1 trillion won worth of overseas stocks in the first week of June, continuing the net selling trend that began in April. This figure far exceeds April's $469 million and is approaching May's full-month record of $940 million. If the selling persists through the end of the month, it will mark the first time since April to July 2023 that there have been three consecutive months of net selling.
Notably, this sell-off is occurring against the backdrop of the three major U.S. stock indices repeatedly hitting record highs, with market expectations suggesting that retail funds may flow back into South Korea. The Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) surpassed the historic 8,000-point threshold at the end of May, led by semiconductor stocks. South Korean retail investors are cashing out at the peak of U.S. stocks and reallocating their assets domestically. [Original Link]
