Seoul stocks opened sharply lower on Monday amid renewed energy price concerns after Iran's warning on the Strait of Hormuz. The KOSPI fell 4.72% in the first 15 minutes. The drop comes amid escalating U.S.-Iran tensions.
Tensions between the United States and Iran have disrupted energy supplies through the Strait of Hormuz in March 2026, spiking oil and LNG prices and affecting Indonesia. The country relies on imported fossil fuels but holds opportunities from critical mineral reserves. Experts recommend accelerating electric vehicle adoption and leveraging natural resources.

President Donald Trump retracted his threat on Monday to attack Iran's power plants and extended the deadline to reopen the Strait of Hormuz by five days. He announced productive conversations with Tehran, though Iran categorically denied them. Markets reacted with rising US stocks and falling oil prices.
В продолжение своих недавних предупреждений президент США Дональд Трамп резко раскритиковал в Белом доме союзников по НАТО за отказ помочь в обеспечении безопасности Ормузского пролива на фоне продолжающегося американо-иранского конфликта. Он назвал их позицию "очень глупой ошибкой" и поднял вопрос о возможности выхода США из альянса. Канцлер Германии Фридрих Мерц отверг любое военное участие Германии.
