AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

AI & Markets: Wealth managers at Pictet say equities can keep running as AI-driven earnings spread beyond tech, though South Korea and Taiwan are seeing a pause after semiconductor-led outperformance. Semiconductors: Seoul shares slid sharply as SK hynix and Samsung tumbled on memory-chip weakness, with investors also watching guidance from major US chip suppliers. Energy Security: Seoul asked the UK to exempt Russian LNG from new sanctions, warning that shipping, insurance and reinsurance limits could destabilize Korea Gas Corp supply. Trade & Industry: The US set Sec. 232 polysilicon measures—15% tariffs plus minimum import prices—raising the cost floor for solar components that feed both solar and semiconductor supply chains. AI Procurement: South Korea will let a random citizen panel choose among four AI models to power a free national service, using a lottery-based evaluation rather than a blind technical test. Defense: North Korea fired a short-range ballistic missile toward the East Sea, keeping regional tensions high. Food & Ag Exports: US export data shows South Korea remains a key beef buyer, while corn sales include large shipments to South Korea. Crypto Security: Kite Foundation says it contained an Ethereum mainnet attack targeting its KITE token with no funds lost.
