SK Hynix is trading 3.12% down in pre-market at $159.84 amid renewed Middle East tensions and an overnight selloff in South Korean technology shares.
- Reports linked weakness in Korean chipmakers to geopolitical risk, higher oil prices, elevated bond yields, and foreign-investor selling.
- The September 2 close was $164.98, following a 2.61% gain.
- U.S. index futures are modestly higher, so pressure appears concentrated in overseas semiconductor sentiment.
