Korean Stocks Fall 3% as Chipmakers, Automakers Tumble

Korean stocks fell about 3%, led by chipmakers such as Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, as well as automakers. Rising concerns over interest rates and global growth triggered selling by foreign and institutional investors. This pressures SK Hynix shares in the short term, but the medium- to long-term impact may be limited if market sentiment stabilizes.
