South Korea’s vice science minister said the government is monitoring whether U.S. investment in AI data centers could shift, a signal that Seoul is weighing risks to its tech-sector outlook. The remark came via First Squawk and did not include specific figures for investment, capacity or market size. The focus on AI data-center spending matters because those facilities underpin demand for chips, servers and related infrastructure tied to South Korea’s export-heavy economy. Investors should watch for follow-up comments from Korean officials and any changes in U.S. AI capital-expenditure plans from major cloud and chip companies.
