Nextrade to temporarily ban limit-up and limit-down orders in pre-market from Aug. 12

Nextrade will temporarily ban limit-up and limit-down orders in its pre-market from Aug. 12 after repeated cases in which extreme prices were executed on small orders. It plans to add a static volatility interruption mechanism from Sept. 14 to reduce sharp price swings. Nextrade said some extreme-price executions are believed to have stemmed from errors in the order-processing process. It will also change how volatility interruptions are triggered and monitor for abnormal signs.

KOSPI drops 5 percent a day after record rebound, raising questions over August outlook

South Korea\'s KOSPI fell more than 5 percent on the first trading day of August, a day after posting a record rebound, as foreign and retail trading flows flipped. Analysts said it was too early to view the bounce as a trend reversal. The won-dollar exchange rate, semiconductor earnings confidence, U.S. rate direction and global risk appetite were cited as key variables. Brokers largely expect gradual recovery rather than a V-shaped rebound.

KOSPI record surge puts focus on whether rebound can continue

South Korea\'s stock market, after posting its biggest one-day jump on record on July 31, is in focus this week for signs the rebound can continue. Easing worries about a slowdown in AI investment, upcoming U.S. economic data and interest rates, and whether semiconductor supply normalises are seen as key variables. Foreign investors returned in force, while individuals sold heavily. Market participants are also watching the impact of tighter rules on single-stock leveraged ETFs.
