#韩国kospi下跌触发熔断 Starting November 9, South Korea will temporarily suspend the 140% financing-guarantee requirement for three months. The core logic is very simple and direct: break the negative feedback loop of “sharp drop → forced liquidations and margin calls → even steeper plunge.”
South Korea’s market-rescue policy is clear: it is forcibly giving the market painkillers. Retail investors won’t be forced to sell at fire-sale prices because of liquidations, and the broader market could rally sharply in the short term. But this merely pushes leverage risk back by three months; the fundamental problem is liquidity in U.S. tech stocks.
When tech stocks collapse, leveraged funds held by retail investors are especially vulnerable to forced liquidations that trigger a stampede. This time, the authorities have stepped in directly to backstop brokerages and retail investors, essentially freezing short-term selling pressure by force. In the near term, indiscriminate panic selling is likely to subside quickly, and the broader market will probably find a technical floor. But this is just defensive damage control, not a signal of a reversal. Whether the market can truly rebound in the medium term depends entirely on the performance of U.S. semiconductor stocks and the actual earnings of the global AI supply chain.
