EWY, tracking South Korea’s equity market with roughly 50% exposure to information technology and heavy weights in Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, has delivered an 83% YTD return through late August 2026 on surging AI-driven demand for high-bandwidth memory chips. Recent price action around $174–178 reflects sharp swings tied to SK Hynix’s large-scale share buyback announcement, foreign inflows exceeding $6 billion in recent weeks, and movements in U.S. Treasury yields that influence global risk appetite. Corporate Value-Up reforms supporting higher shareholder returns and the semiconductor supercycle remain the dominant structural drivers, while geopolitical tensions and yield volatility introduce near-term uncertainty for month-end levels.

Historical 1-minute candles may be accessed by appending a Unix timestamp (seconds) to the Pyth chart URL using the "t=" parameter. Any timestamp within the listed market time frame may be used to view the relevant candle data (e.g., https://pythdata.app/explore/Equity.US.EWY%2FUSD?t=1773432000)
