SKHX is trading at $13.05, down -7.13%, after renewed U.S. semiconductor tariff threats targeted at overseas manufacturers.
- U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick indicated domestic producers could receive tariff relief, while foreign-dependent chipmakers may face additional costs.
- SK hynix also fell in Seoul, confirming sector-wide pressure despite broader U.S. indexes trading higher.
- The move appears driven by semiconductor-sector risk, not a company-specific announcement; SK hynix’s Indiana fab groundbreaking may provide tariff protection but has not offset immediate concerns.
