[경제]KOSPI collapses 3,200 lines in a day…the largest net selling for foreigners this year

[앵커]

The 3,200 line of KOSPI collapsed in one day due to an offensive to sell by institutions and foreigners.

The KOSDAQ index slipped after breaking through the 1,000 line, but as the KOSPI market fluctuated, the buying trend weakened and could not be returned.

The volatility of the stock market is growing.

In the KOSPI, the 3,200 line collapsed as institutions and foreigners that started to realize profit margins began to decline slightly and increased the extent of the decline.

Individuals net bought over 4 trillion won, defending the index, but failed to face the sale offensive by institutions and foreigners.

In particular, foreigners net sold nearly 2 trillion won, the largest this year.

Pension funds continued their net selling march on the 21st.

Most of the top stocks by market capitalization fell 3% for Samsung Electronics, 3.27% for Hyundai Motor Company and 3.54% for LG Chem.

The share price of E-Mart, which will become the club’s parent company, fell by nearly 5% on the news of acquiring the professional baseball team SK Wyverns.

The KOSDAQ index exceeded the 1,000 line during the intraday, but was pushed back to the 990 line as the KOSPI market declined.

It has been 20 years and 4 months since September 15, 2000, when the information technology and IT stocks boom broke the KOSDAQ index above the 1,000 line in the market.
