AI Summary
The Korea Exchange triggered a sell-side sidecar at 10:34 a.m. on the 13th, halting program sell orders for 5 minutes after KOSPI 200 futures fell 5.23% (63.14 points) below the 1,205.30 reference price, with the KOSPI itself down 3.64% at 7,203.73. The drop is being driven by a sharp selloff in Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, meaning the semiconductor-heavy index is repricing AI/chip momentum, which pressures foreign flows and pushes USD/KRW higher through risk-off channels. Watch whether program selling resumes after the halt and whether US chip names (NVDA, memory-linked equities) confirm or fade the correction overnight, as that will determine if this is a one-day flush or the start of a broader tech de-rating.
As a Market signal, watch whether it changes price action, volatility, or flows around KOSPI, 005930, 000660.

Influencer Threads
The author opens a thread on the March 19, 2023 failure of Credit Suisse, noting the 167-year-old bank that survived two world wars and the 1929 crash collapsed after a comment from its largest shareholder, was acquired by UBS for a fraction of its Friday price, and saw 17 billion dollars of bondholder value wiped out. This is external-link style thread sharing that revisits a historical banking crisis rather than a current market call.
Crypto Wendy O says Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan Chase will be stepping down and claims two potential replacements could be classified as pro-crypto, framing this as a development for the week of June 26, 2026. This is the author's characterization; if accurate, a leadership change toward crypto-friendly candidates at JPMorgan would be the visible implication.
Dalio argues that employee turnover is costly and inefficient given the time it takes for people and organizations to get to know each other, and that both will evolve unpredictably. His view is that companies should hire people they want to share a long-term mission with, since great people will always be useful.
Ram Ahluwalia notes Micron shares jumped 18% in premarket trading after a blowout earnings report showing a 700% revenue surge driven by Nvidia-led DRAM demand, lifting the Nasdaq 2%. He says the key question is whether investors hold the gap or sell into the news, adding that analysts view Micron as a dominant, high-value semiconductor play versus peers.
