87% of KOSPI Stocks Rose — The Index Still Fell. What Retail Investors Need to Know | June 30 2026 [op2Tz3147Kb]
A record 7.76 trillion won in foreign selling dragged the KOSPI lower on June 29, even as 826 of 946 listed stocks closed in positive territory — the clearest sign yet of Korea's semiconductor concentration problem. In today's AI PRISM Retail Investors edition, we break down why the headline KOSPI number may be misleading for individual portfolio holders, what a 1,200-person Seoul Economic Daily survey reveals about where retail money is heading in the second half, and why China's CXMT signing a 4.5 trillion won DRAM supply deal with Tencent matters for anyone holding Samsung Electronics or SK Hynix. Plus: European asset giant DWS — managing 1.09 trillion euros globally — makes the case for Korea's eventual MSCI Developed Market upgrade. Three things to watch before July earnings season.
