KOSPI index posted a 17% gain in one of the strongest single-day moves in its history, driven by heavy institutional flows into Korean equities. The surge highlights accelerating momentum in Asian equity markets as global investors rotate capital toward undervalued benchmarks amid shifting rate expectations.
