KOSPI opens at fresh high

A financial data screen in the dealing room of Hana Bank in Seoul on May 11, 2026, shows the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index having shot up 4.08 percent from the previous session to an intraday high of 7,803.83 in early trading. South Korean stocks opened at a fresh record high, boosted by an extended rally of blue chip semiconductor shares, despite woes over the U.S.-Iran peace deal at the risk of rupture. (Yonhap)
