KOSPI rises over 7,000-pt mark

Employees take part in a ceremony at the dealing room of Hana Bank in Seoul on May 6, 2026, to celebrate the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index having risen over the 7,000-point mark for the first time in early trading. South Korean stocks rose, driven by U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement to pause operations to guide vessels out of the Strait of Hormuz as part of efforts to finalize a deal with Iran.
