KOSPI plunges 6 percent after first intraday break above 8,000, triggers sell sidecar
South Korea\'s KOSPI on Thursday briefly broke above the 8,000 mark for the first time before reversing sharply and ending below 7,500. The index closed down 6.12 percent at 7,493.18 as profit-taking pressure grew after a rapid rise, while Middle East tensions, rising U.S. and Japanese rates and a weaker won weighed on sentiment. The Korea Exchange activated a sell sidecar, temporarily halting program sell orders.
