-
■ Despite weak construction investment and slower export growth, the Korean economy shows signs of a modest improvement, led by consumption. ○ The semiconductor sector remained buoyant, but export growth gradually slowed due to negative spillover from U.S. tariff hikes. Construction investment also continued to lose momentum. - With exports to the U.S. declining steadily and weakness persisting in non-semiconductor items, average daily exports showed a modest slowdown. ○ However, consumption has been recovering gradually, supported by lower market interest rates and policy measures to stimulate spending. - As a result, services production continued to improve, particularly in sectors tied to domestic demand, such as wholesale and retail trade. ○ Meanwhile, although trade conditions have improved somewhat,with progress in KoreaU.S. trade negotiations and easing U.S. China trade tensions, uncertainty persists.
