KOSPI rises

An electronic signboard at the dealing room of Hana Bank in Seoul on July 9, 2026, shows the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index having risen 45.12 points, or 0.62 percent, to close at 7,291.91. Seoul shares ended higher as institutional buying helped offset heavy retail selling amid a reassessment of the outlook for artificial intelligence demand. (Yonhap)
