South Korea’s iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (EWY) has rallied sharply in 2026, with year-to-date gains near 94% through early September amid record semiconductor exports that now account for over 40% of total shipments. Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, which together comprise roughly 45% of the fund, have benefited from surging AI-driven demand for high-bandwidth memory, lifting earnings and supporting multiple upward revisions to GDP forecasts (now 3.0–3.5%). The ETF trades near $189 as of September 4, well below its 2026 high of $220.89 but still reflecting strong momentum from chip supercycle tailwinds and corporate governance reforms. Key near-term influences include ongoing AI capital expenditure, Bank of Korea policy decisions amid elevated inflation, and any escalation in Middle East energy risks that could pressure broader sentiment.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if, at any point after market creation and during September 2026, any 1-minute candle for South Korea ETF (EWY) has a final "High" or "Low" price equal to or beyond (above for ↑ High Prices, below for ↓ Low Prices) the listed price. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
Only prices achieved during the regular trading hours of the primary exchange on which the listed security trades (typically 9:30 AM – 4:00 PM ET) will be considered. Prices occurring during pre-market or after-hours trading will not qualify.
Prices will be used exactly as published by Pyth, without rounding.
In the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, or similar corporate action affecting the listed company during the listed time frame, this market will resolve based on split-adjusted prices as displayed on Pyth.
The target price will be adjusted proportionally to reflect any stock splits. Resolution will be based on the historical price data as shown on Pyth after any adjustments have been applied.
The resolution source for this market is Pyth — specifically, the South Korea ETF (EWY) "High" and "Low" prices available at https://pythdata.app/explore/Equity.US.EWY%2FUSD, with the chart settings configured for 1-minute candles.
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)
If the relevant Pyth data is unavailable due to a system outage, data failure, or other technical disruption that prevents verification of the required 1-minute candle data, the official daily high/low price published by the primary exchange on which the listed security trades will be used to determine whether the listed price was reached during the applicable trading session.South Korea’s iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (EWY) has rallied sharply in 2026, with year-to-date gains near 94% through early September amid record semiconductor exports that now account for over 40% of total shipments.
