South Korean Stock Market Plummets! 1 in 30 Korean Adults Faces Margin Calls, Forced Liquidation Rate Soars from 2.1% to 10%

Goldman Sachs Korea frontline commentary: IBM's plunge confirms storage shortage, retail investors capitulate but key support levels in Korean stocks hold firm, institutions believe storage capacity expansion won't be too aggressive

The Goldman Sachs Seoul team believes that IBM’s 25% plunge confirms that corporate clients are redirecting capital expenditures toward storage procurement, with a "crowding-out effect" spreading to non-AI enterprise buyers.

Institutional investors have recorded net buying at key support levels in the Korean stock market, while retail investors have sold off, resulting in cleaner positions. Due to equipment shortages, actual storage capacity expansion will fall far short of expectations. The KOSPI target remains at 12,000 points, with a bullish stance maintained.
