Samsung, SK Hynix Buyback End Weighs on KOSPI

Korean media reported that the end of share buyback programs at Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix is weighing on the KOSPI as the market loses a key source of buying support. The buybacks had underpinned both chipmakers' shares, and their conclusion could weaken near-term flows and pressure SK Hynix's stock. Fundamentals and the memory upcycle outlook remain intact, limiting longer-term impact.
