South Korea's iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (EWY) has experienced extreme volatility in 2026, surging over 50% year-to-date on AI-driven semiconductor demand for Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix before a sharp correction erased 20-40% from the KOSPI's June peak. The recent pullback stems from concerns over AI capital expenditure sustainability, disappointing earnings from key chipmakers, and forced unwinding of leveraged single-stock ETFs, triggering liquidity-driven selling and multiple trading halts. Despite the drawdown, the index remains up substantially for the year, supported by strong memory chip fundamentals amid global supply shortages. Traders are closely monitoring August economic releases, global risk sentiment, and any shifts in hyperscaler spending plans that could influence EWY price action in the immediate term.
