Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Bank of America sees a buying opportunity in the Korean won after the currency weakened alongside AI-related equities, according to Claudio Piron, the bank's head of Asia FX and rates strategy. Piron said South Korea's sizable current account surplus provides "quite significant" support for investors building long positions in the won, and that this factor will begin to take effect. He argued that current levels offer an opportunity to establish long won positions on the margin. The call comes after a selloff in AI-linked stocks that dragged the won lower, with the balance of payments backdrop seen as the key offset to watch.
