South Korean shares hit 2-month high

South Korean shares hit 2-month high

South Korean stocks went up on Monday to their highest point in almost two months.

This happened because companies that make computer chips, like Samsung and SK Hynix, did really well.

People think this is because more chips are being bought.

The Korean won, which is the money used in South Korea, also got stronger compared to the dollar.

At the same time, the prices for borrowing money (like bonds) went down a little.

This is good news for people who have stocks, especially in tech companies.
