> South Korean stocks fell for a second consecutive session on November 6, with the KOSPI closing down 6.02% at 5,059.69 after dropping as much as 8% intraday. Investors feared that a Democratic-controlled U.S. Congress could tighten rules on AI data centers, while foreign investors sold a net 2.77 trillion won of Korean shares; the won also weakened sharply against the dollar.
