Briefing by News4U · First published

Sina Finance reported that South Korea's Kospi index fell 3.5% on Friday to 5730.74 points, triggering a circuit breaker after dropping more than 5% intraday, as investors questioned the returns on AI spending following disappointing U.S. tech earnings and lower-than-expected Intel forecasts. The index has declined 16% this month. October CPI is expected to ease slightly to 2.8% year-on-year from 2.9% in September, with the data due next Tuesday. [1]
