Recent exporter dollar sales from Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, fueled by record semiconductor exports exceeding $709 billion year-to-date, have driven the USD/KRW rate down sharply to around 1,338 as of September 9, 2026—its strongest level since October 2024 and roughly 220 points below the June peak near 1,559. A widening current-account surplus and sustained foreign equity inflows into Korean assets have reinforced KRW demand, while Middle East oil-price spikes above $94 per barrel create countervailing importer dollar demand. Markets currently price in roughly a 60% chance of a September FOMC rate hike, supporting the dollar alongside elevated Treasury yields, even as the Bank of Korea holds its policy rate near 3.00%. Key near-term catalysts include the September FOMC decision, potential U.S.-Korea investment announcements, and ongoing capital-flow dynamics that could sustain volatility through year-end.
