Recent USD/KRW trading near 1,520 reflects persistent upward pressure from Korean residents' record overseas equity investments and foreign investor equity outflows, which have amplified spot dollar demand despite ample offshore dollar liquidity via swaps. Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have lifted oil prices and Korean inflation to 2.6% in April, prompting the Bank of Korea to hold its 2.5% base rate at the May 2026 meeting while raising its 2026 inflation forecast to 2.7% and growth outlook to 2.6% on semiconductor export strength. Official verbal intervention and supply-demand stabilization measures announced in late 2025 have tempered but not reversed the move, with the pair still up over 11% year-over-year. Key near-term catalysts include the July BOK policy decision, June CPI data, and any escalation in U.S.-Iran dynamics that could shift risk sentiment or Treasury yields.
