KOSPI set to try again for 7,000: what could move the market

South Korean stocks are expected to try again to settle above the 7,000 mark on the KOSPI this week. Semiconductor earnings and expanded shareholder returns are seen supporting the downside, while August export data and U.S. employment figures are expected to determine whether the rebound continues. Markets are also watching U.S. rate expectations after Kevin Warsh’s Jackson Hole remarks and the rise in U.S. two-year yields.
