🚨 South Korea’s stock market is booming, and foreign brokerage firms are also starting to “cash in on the windfall”!In Q2, six foreign brokerage firms in South Korea combined to net KRW 630.5 billion, a year-on-year surge of 213.8%, and a quarter-on-quarter increase of 133.3%. Institutions such as JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, UBS, Morgan Stanley, and others have all benefited from heightened trading activity and rising prices in the South Korean stock market.
In plain terms: **when the market heats up, the first players to really make money are often not just retail investors—brokerages and trading platforms, the “spade-sellers,” can also rake in profits big time.**📈 With recent trading activity in South Korea’s stock market picking up, brokerages’ brokerage/commission businesses have clearly benefited. Major domestic Korean brokerages also reported strong performance in Q2; the core drivers behind this are increased trading volume and heightened liquidity.
This is also a signal for the crypto market worth paying attention to 👀: **when capital starts to become active, market risk appetite may truly pick up.** In essence, higher trading volumes, and growth in brokerage profits, both indicate that more participants are entering the market and trading willingness is increasing.
So don’t just watch whether BTC is up or down—**stock trading volume, brokerage performance, and fund flows are also important thermometers for assessing global risk appetite.**🔥
One-sentence summary: **When the trend comes in, trading volume gets hot first, brokerages get fat next, and then it’s a turn for various assets in the market.**📊$TUT $BTC $PORTAL #PUMP #ZRO #SC #TST #SYN
