Summary
Program trading in KOSPI-listed shares was suspended for five minutes around 9:06 a.m., according to the Korea Exchange. The KOSPI fell by more than 5.69 percent as of 9:08 a.m. The decline came as investors sold off semiconductor shares amid rising fears over excessive artificial intelligence investment. A sell-side sidecar is triggered when the KOSPI 200 Futures Index falls 5 percent or more for at least one minute. (Yonhap).
Furthermore, South Korea's bourse operator on Tuesday activated a sell-side sidecar for the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index after the index fell sharply, led by losses in tech heavyweights.
