EWY is trading in pre-market at $155.24, down 4.07%, as overnight U.S. technology losses and renewed doubts about AI investment returns weighed on South Korean shares.

  • The KOSPI fell sharply.
  • Semiconductor heavyweights Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix led the local decline, tracking the global tech rout.
  • The move appears sector-led, with no separate verified EWY-specific catalyst.
