KOSPI collapses due to worsening AI investment sentiment... US data center regulations and credit and investment noise.
US stocks plummeted on 5th, with the three major indexes in New York all experiencing a sharp decline. The panic selling spread from the semiconductor sector to the broader market, with tech giants such as Microsoft, Meta, and Nvidia seeing significant losses.

The Nasdaq composite index fell 5.52%, with semiconductor stocks such as Micron, Qualcomm, and AMD experiencing significant declines.
