KOSPI soars

A financial data screen in the dealing room of Hana Bank in Seoul on Aug. 13, 2025, shows the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index having risen 34.46 points, or 1.08 percent, to close at 3,224.37. South Korean stocks rose sharply higher to end a three-day losing streak as hopes for a U.S. rate cut fueled foreign buying. (Yonhap)
