Stock Market 24 June 2026

Foreign investors dumped about $8.6 billion of Korean and Taiwan stocks on Wednesday, while the KOSPI jumped 3.3% in Seoul. The bounce was led by Korean buyers. Overseas investors offloaded a net 4.66 trillion won, about 8.7% of market turnover, with local retail and instituionals picking up 4.55 trillion won. In Taiwan, foreign investors sold a record NT$177.42 billion, 12.2% of turnover. TSMC slid 4.02%, dragging the Taiex down by about 76% of its 1,057-point loss. “TSMC just fell victim to such profit-taking,” Cathay Futures analyst Tsai Ming-han said. The foreign outflows show that Seoul’s pop wasn’t a sign of risk appetite coming back.
