Hynix smiled, chips didn't — Kospi climbed anyway

Kospi opened up 0.68%. Foreigners dumped more than 4.5 trillion won worth of stock, yet the index held its ground — SK Hynix rolled out a 76% operating margin, and iM Securities waved off chip-export slowdown fears as overblown, so materials and staples stepped in to fill the gap. Kosdaq slid 1.28% even with foreigners buying, dragged down as institutions sold into semiconductor and AI weakness. I didn't touch a single name today, just watched it all play out.
