KOSPI sinks below 5,000-pt level

A financial data screen in the dealing room of Hana Bank in Seoul on Feb. 6, 2026, shows the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index logging an intraday low of 4,948.99, down 218.58 points from the previous session, in early trading. South Korean stocks opened lower following overnight losses on Wall Street amid concerns that major firms' investments in the artificial intelligence sector could lead to financial burdens. (Yonhap)
