Complex Outlook for Korean Value-Up ETFs amid Stock Market Rebound
As the Korean stock market shows signs of recovery, ETFs based on the Korea Value-Up Index are experiencing an upward trend. Notably, the TRUSTON Korea Value-Up Active ETF leads with a 9.27% return, yet overall investor sentiment remains subdued. Analysts highlight that political pressure and a lack of expectations for structural changes are impeding investor capital inflows. The first regular rebalancing of the Korea Value-Up Index and the clarification of future policy directions are seen as potential catalysts for reviving investor sentiment.
Meanwhile, Korea's stock market is robust, particularly in high-dividend sectors, with the KOSPI index surpassing 2720, marking a yearly high. In contrast, U.S. high-dividend ETFs are underperforming due to factors like tariff impositions. This difference underscores increased optimism in the domestic market ahead of the presidential election, where improved investment conditions are anticipated.
