KOSPI falls

A financial data screen in the dealing room of Hana Bank in Seoul on April 17, 2026, shows the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index having declined 34.13 points, or 0.55 percent, to close at 6,191.92. South Korean stocks closed lower on profit-hunting as investors sat on the sidelines amid diplomatic moves for a possible second round of U.S.-Iran peace talks. (Yonhap)
