KOSPI tops 7,500-pt plateau

A financial data screen in the dealing room of Hana Bank in Seoul on May 7, 2026, shows the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index having logged an intraday high of 7,519.84, up 1.83 percent from the previous session, in early trading. South Korean stocks opened at a fresh record high, driven by simmering signs of a peace deal between the United States and Iran, and an extended advance in chipmakers. (Yonhap)
