On October 21, the KOSPI surpassed the 3,890 mark during intraday trading, continuing its record-breaking rally. The surge has been fueled by easing trade tensions between the United States and China, robust sales of Apple's iPhone 17, and smooth progress in tariff negotiations between South Korea and the United States. As of 9:17 a.m. on this day, the KOSPI was trading at 3,871.12, up 1.48% from the previous trading day. After opening at 3,851.01, a 0.95% increase from the previous session, the index exceeded the 3,890 mark for the first time ever, driven by strong foreign buying. Samsung Electronics approached the symbolic 1 million won mark, while SK Hynix reached the 500,000 won level. The KOSPI index is displayed on the electronic board at the Korea Exchange in Yeouido, Seoul, on this day.
