This drop followed a 14% decline in the iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (NYSEARCA:EWY), indicating that KORU's 3x leverage amplified the market's overall downturn. The MSCI Korea index, heavily weighted by Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, which fell by 6% and 10% respectively, was impacted by over $1.21 billion in foreign investment withdrawals.
