Escalating tensions in the Middle East, after the US and Iran each rejected the others proposal to end the war, continued to drive capital inflows into the South Korean equity market. South Koreas KOSPI index opened 3.7% higher this morning (11th) at 7,775 points, leading gains across the Asia-Pacific region. It was last at 7,871 points, a record high, up 373 points or 5%. KOSPI 200 futures rose 5%, triggering a circuit breaker, with program trading briefly suspended for five minutes.
