South Korea’s KOSPI set to enter bear market as Samsung rout deepens

South Korea's KOSPI is approaching a bear market as the rout of Samsung deepens. This downward trend in the equity market is linked to a dimming outlook for AI demand. Such conditions may lead to increased market volatility, necessitating a strategic reassessment for investors operating within tech sectors. The combination of Samsung's decline and weakening AI expectations is pushing the broader South Korean equity market closer to official bear territory as investor confidence wavers.
