Samsung and SK Hynix are plunging. Why are Korean stocks starting to decouple from the global AI rally?đ€Żđ€Ż
Samsung and SK Hynix powered Korean stocks higher in the first half. But with so much index weight concentrated in just two memory giants, that concentration became a risk.

Corporate buybacks had absorbed some of the selling. But as those programs wind down, the next wave of buyers seems nowhere to be found.
