South Korea’s iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (EWY) trades near $178–179 as of early September 2026 after closing at $175.80 on September 1, reflecting an 81% YTD gain driven by its ~51% IT weighting and heavy exposure to Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. The primary catalyst remains the ongoing AI-driven memory supercycle, which has boosted semiconductor exports and supported KOSPI levels above 6,500 for much of the year. Trader sentiment shifted sharply lower on September 2 after a 4% KOSPI drop triggered by renewed U.S.-Iran tensions, higher oil prices, and rising global yields that revived inflation concerns. With elevated beta and sensitivity to energy costs, foreign flows, and memory pricing, EWY’s September outcome hinges on whether geopolitical volatility persists or semiconductor demand reasserts dominance into month-end.

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) trades near $178–179 as of early September 2026 after closing at $175.80 on September 1, reflecting an 81% YTD gain driven by its ~51% IT weighting and heavy exposure to Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix.
