Bitcoin slipped below $63,000 on Friday as a global selloff in semiconductor and AI-related stocks spread to crypto markets. Renewed geopolitical tensions involving the United States, Iran, and China added to the pressure on risk assets.
South Korean stocks opened at a record high Thursday, with the KOSPI benchmark nearing 6,500 points, driven by large-cap tech gains and the United States' indefinite extension of its ceasefire with Iran. U.S. President Donald Trump announced the decision following stalled peace talks. The index marked new records for the third consecutive session.
