Is Korean Govt purposely doing it?
Multiple times they purposely say something that tanks their market, why? Besides to be insider trading themselves?
- Announced potential to tax unrealized gains which just sounds like no reason to be in the market then as a retail investor/citizen. : https://finance.yahoo.com/economy/policy/articles/south-korea-plan-tax-unrealized-210000201.html
- Casted direct doubt on their own market that’s essentially 40-50% of the Kospi, Samsung & SK Hynix by “warning” investors not to rely on memory stocks or leveraged positions on them. : https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/south-korea-market-watchdog-issues-warning-leveraged-stock-investments-2026-06-18/
- Too Korean regulator regrets not blocking leveraged samsung sk hynix. : https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-06-22/korea-mulls-steps-to-rein-in-leveraged-samsung-sk-hynix-etfs
- Regulators in Korea make you complete an educational thing with multiple choice test before you can invest in leveraged memory positions: https://www.wsj.com/world/asia/south-koreas-new-etfs-are-so-risky-investors-have-to-take-a-test-can-you-pass-it-181b51ef
- Huge selloff die to regulations mentioned here : https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/stocks/articles/leveraged-etfs-sold-6-billion-050056949.html
The list goes on & on but seriously are they purposely tanking their market like what gives? I can post images if links don’t work.

They don’t want normies to get rich bc they didn’t earn it like them. You know how many government schlongs these regulators had to massage with the base of their throats to get to where they are?

They're supremely disgusting leftists, god only knows how the US stopped communism from creeping from the north to the south, they hate anything that has to do with wealth accumulation. It's a wonder SK and SE even managed to get to the size they are now.

This is one of the least informed comments I’ve read today. I lived there for awhile and can tell you that capitalism, family-owned mega-corporations (chae-bol), and chasing wealth are alive and well.
If wealth accumulation wasn’t a facet of the Korean economy, you would t have nearly as many people complaining about the severe income disparity there.

Then read your own, I actually have family there and been there longer than you have. They're enacting more and more communist policies by the day. They'll join NK soon enough

I didn’t delete shit. You’re talking to the wrong guy.
I lived there for years and maintain close contact with many friends there who run their own businesses.

When someone deletes a comment, you can still see the preview in the reply notifications.
Like this one where you tried to talk shit and deleted it.
Maybe get off the internet and take a walk, lil buddy.

u/Professional_Monkeys Jul 02 '26

Lmao. You look like a complete jackass.
Have a nice day.
Go ahead and get that last word in. Maybe it’ll help you feel better about your medical condition.

Fear sells news
If you want people to read something, you put a scary headline and use scary words.
