South Korea's benchmark Kospi index recovered from early losses late Wednesday, driven by a wave of institutional buying.
The rebound came as market participants continued to reassess the next phase of the artificial intelligence trade, with bargain hunting providing a floor for equities that had been under pressure earlier in the session.
The recovery followed a period of volatility where traders offloaded semiconductor and large-cap technology shares.
Individual investors also contributed to the late-session rally, stepping in to buy dips as sentiment stabilized.
The shift in buying interest suggests that despite ongoing uncertainty around AI-related valuations, demand for Korean tech equities remains resilient at current levels.
This development marks a continuation of the recent volatility in Seoul markets, where the Kospi has seen significant swings.
