South Korean stocks shaken by U.S. Supreme Court ruling on reciprocal tariffs

South Korean shares fluctuated after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the Trump administration’s reciprocal tariffs illegal, triggering a reassessment of trade risks. The KOSPI finished up 0.65 percent at 5,846.09 after briefly topping 5,900. The court voided a 15 percent reciprocal tariff, but Washington moved to impose a universal tariff. Analysts said downside risks eased for some sectors, while tariffs on autos and steel remain.
