코스피 내리막길…외국인 일주일 새 14조 팔았다

The KOSPI index declined 6.3% this week as escalating US-Iran tensions and concerns about Hormuz Strait blockade triggered foreign investor exits of 13.7 trillion won. Individual investors aggressively bought 14.8 trillion won during the selloff, particularly in Samsung Electronics, demonstrating a classic risk-on divergence during geopolitical uncertainty. Analysts suggest the elevated volatility may represent a turning point, with historical patterns indicating mean reversion potential if diplomatic negotiations progress.
