During March, the Nikkei 225 and KOSPI indices experienced their largest monthly declines since October 2008, dropping 13.2% and 19.1% respectively. This downturn was driven by escalating geopolitical tensions and a tightening global macro environment, leading to increased market uncertainty and sell-offs in risky assets. High-valuation sectors, particularly technology and exports, were heavily impacted. The South Korean market, sensitive to global liquidity changes, faced significant declines, exacerbated by capital outflows and currency pressures. Analysts suggest that further geopolitical escalation or tightening interest rates could continue to pressure Asia-Pacific markets.
