- Summary
-
■ The Korean economy is experiencing a moderate downturn, buoyed by rapid growth in exports, particularly from the IT sector, even as domestic demand recovery lags. ○ The strong rebound in global semiconductor activities has led to a significant increase in exports, which in turn is helping to mitigate the contraction in economic activity. - As the slowdown in global trade gradually dissipates, export conditions are demonstrating overall improvement. - The continued recovery in semiconductor activity has resulted in a substantial increase in related exports and production, positively influencing some financial indicators, including stock prices. ○ However, consumption remains weak, particularly in goods consumption, as financing conditions are not improving due to persistent high interest rates. - Consequently, employment conditions are undergoing partial adjustments, and the underlying trend of price increases is gradually slowing. - Although equipment investment exhibited some positive signs, particularly in the semiconductor industry, construction investment, which had previously surged due to a rise in projects nearing completion, is now experiencing a slight moderation. ○ Meanwhile, external risk factors persist, such as the escalating international oil prices and transportation disruptions precipitated by geopolitical tensions.
