We estimate weekly foreign flows at an inflow of USD732m, even as total foreign holdings fell USD13bn (0.9% WoW) from USD1,375bn a week earlier. The KOSPI index fell 2.1% over the week, so foreign holdings declined less than the broader market. Samsung Electronics led inflows with USD1,375m, followed by Hyundai Motor at USD106m, SamsungE&A at USD99m, SKSQUARE at USD91m, and Celltrion at USD69m.
