Seoul equities opened higher on Tuesday, driven by a wave of bargain hunting in the technology sector that outweighed concerns over escalating tensions involving Iran.
Investors moved to buy into battered tech heavyweights, signaling a shift in sentiment toward valuation recovery despite the broader geopolitical backdrop.
The rally was fueled by buying interest in large-cap stocks, as traders sought to capitalize on recent dips.
This activity persisted even as lingering concerns over artificial intelligence sector volatility and regional security risks remained on the periphery.
The market's ability to absorb these headwinds suggests that domestic liquidity and technical support levels are currently dominating price action.
This development follows a similar pattern seen late Thursday, when Seoul equities expanded their gains as investors continued to buy the dip in large-cap names.
