KOSPI
Closed for the weekend (last close 6,625.93, -2.62% on 2026-10-08). With the surge in US 10-year Treasury yields and foreign selling in semiconductor heavyweights, defending the 6,600 level will be a key focal point when markets reopen next week.

KOSDAQ
Closed for the weekend (last close 892.27, -0.69% on 2026-10-08). Below the 900 mark amid wait-and-see sentiment across small-and-mid-cap tech and the EV battery value chain, the index is poised to seek directional cues next week.
Highlights
NASDAQ
Latest session close 27,366.17 (+0.64%). Delivered modest gains as continued AI demand momentum among mega-cap tech balanced against persistent uncertainty regarding further Federal Reserve tightening.
