KOSPI ends at record high

A financial data screen in the dealing room of Hana Bank in Seoul on May 13, 2026, shows the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index having gained 200.86 points, or 2.63 percent, to close at a record high of 7,844.01. South Korean stocks closed sharply higher as investors scooped up semiconductor and auto shares amid lingering Middle East tensions ahead of the U.S.-China summit. (Yonhap)
