SEOUL — South Korean stocks slightly rose on Monday morning after the impeachment of the country’s embattled president over the weekend eased political uncertainty.
The benchmark KOSPI index advanced as much as 0.84% before dropping 0.17% to 2,490.32 as of 10:50 a.m. The index has clawed back most losses incurred from President Yoon Suk Yeol’s failed attempt to put the country under martial law on Dec. 3.
