KOSPI rises above 2,500-pt threshold

A screen in the dealing room of Hana Bank in Seoul shows the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index having risen 21.67 points, or 0.87 percent, to close at 2,512.08 on April 10, 2023. South Korean stocks hit a nearly eight-month high, buoyed by strong gains in tech blue-chips and U.S. jobs data signaling a cooling economy that raises the odds for the Federal Reserve to ease up on its monetary tightening.
