The 40 trillion won share buyback period entered its 6th day, and SK Hynix still fell 4.85% at the open.
On the plaza hot list, #Samsung is down 8.97%, dragging the KOSPI down 3.24%. In the KRX spot market at this round of 09:30, the numbers are already another set: the KOSPI is down 2.63%, Samsung Electronics is down 2.92%, and SK Hynix is down 4.85%. The hot list and the real-time board aren’t at the exact same time point, but the direction is consistent—Korea’s market is bearing a round of concentrated sell pressure.
In the 09:30 KRX data, 663 stocks fell and 194 rose. Foreign investors net sold about 980.7 billion won. SK Hynix is falling even more than Samsung and its semiconductor peers. At 08:27, Binance’s $SKHYNIX Korean stock perpetual contract was down about 7.92% over the past 24 hours, with trading volume of about 1.577 billion USDT.
On August 19, SK Hynix approved a 40 trillion won buyback and cancellation, but the execution period is about three months—it is not an immediate price floor effective at the open. Today’s decline can’t be attributed to a single company’s bad news. Korean media only cites overnight weakness in US semiconductor stocks as the market backdrop.
Next, watch two things: whether foreign selling will narrow, and whether SK Hynix’s downside relative to the sector will ease. Tap $SKHYNIX to view Binance real-time quotes.
This is a Korean stock perpetual contract, not direct ownership of shares.
