KOSPI reaches new high

A financial data screen in the dealing room of Woori Bank in Seoul on June 2, 2026, shows the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index having increased 13.11 points, or 0.15 percent, to close at a record high of 8,801.49. South Korean stocks rose above the landmark 8,800-point level as tech shares continued to advance on optimism over artificial intelligence, led by chip giant Samsung Electronics, offsetting a market-wide profit-taking mode.
