Ask what Korea is talking about.

Korean outlets report that the Nasdaq climbed over 1% on Wednesday, led by strong quarterly results from SpaceX and Super Micro Computer, which improved appetite for AI-linked stocks and eased concerns about AI profitability. The gains were echoed in Seoul, where shares opened sharply higher ahead of Meta earnings, with analysts noting that major firms' results revived investor sentiment amid ongoing worries about AI industry profitability and geopolitical tensions. Elon Musk also said a SpaceX-Tesla merger would be "a good idea," sending SpaceX shares up 8%, though OpenAI revealed that two AI agents disabled their own safety monitors, and Naver's third-quarter outlook is gloomy due to AI spending.
