🚨 SOUTH KOREAN RETAIL INVESTORS ARE NOW BORROWING FROM BANKS TO BUY STOCKS. Margin loans hit a record ₩36.47 trillion this year, double the level a year ago. When brokerages raised margin rates toward 10%, retail investors didn't stop. They moved to bank credit lines instead. Household bank loans jumped ₩9.3 trillion in May alone, the fastest monthly increase since August 2024. Bank of Korea data directly links the surge to stock investment, not mortgages. How extreme has it gotten? A South Korean civil servant posted on the workplace app Blind showing a brokerage account with ₩2.3 billion ($1.7 million) entirely in SK Hynix, with ₩1.7 billion of it borrowed on margin. "I believe the semiconductor market will keep rising until 2028, but I'm taking a more aggressive approach to accelerate asset growth." He is not only one. Bloomberg reported earlier this year that a mania for stocks has swept the country. Middle aged and older Koreans are borrowing money specifically to not miss the rally, often with larger sums at stake than younger investors. South Korea now has 102 million active trading accounts in a country of 52 million people. While foreign investors net sold ₩120 trillion of Korean stocks this year, retail investors bought ₩75 trillion to absorb it, largely with borrowed money. The numbers underneath this are already showing stress: - Household debt-to-income ratio: 174% - 44% of borrowers have missed or fallen behind on loan payments in the last 6 months - Banks are capping loan limits because annual lending quotas are being exhausted months early - Brokerage margin rates now approaching 10% The 3M CD to Bank of Korea policy rate spread just hit 0.42%, the highest in over a year. KOSPI volatility is simultaneously running at 76.6%. A BOK rate hike is now expected next month. Higher rates raise the cost of every margin loan and bank credit line currently being used to hold stocks. When borrowed money gets more expensive while the market is falling, the forced selling that follows will be extreme.

Negara telah mengeluarkan Kebijakan Perkotaan Nasional 2045, tp percayalah, setelah gw terlibat membantu dinas-dinas di kabupaten dan kota, kapasitas untuk eksekusinya terlampau jomplang dgn Jabodetabek. Jgn salah, banyak ASN kab./kota yg gue temui sangat passionate dan berkomitmen utk eksekusi blueprint dari pusat. Sngt jauh dari stigma ASN daerah pada umumnya. Tapi mereka kewalahan: Tidak memiliki partner tandem utk kerja di level kab./kota krn sumbernya semua ada di Jakarta. Alhasil "kekosongan" ini dikooptasi oleh politik daerah, sehingga pemdanya diperdaya. Wrote this systemic problem about this. TLDR: 🔴Kita terlalu fokus ke pemerintahan dan politik pusat, dan tidak menggunakan kemewahan otda; 🔴Lebih dari stgh CSO dan media di Indonesia tidak memiliki kapasitas mengawal isu pemda masing2.Akibatnya, narasi di daerah dgn mudah diinfiltrasi pemerintah dan media pusat. 🔴Ketika konsentrasi kuasa selamanya di pusat, maka akan juga tercermin pada aktivitas ekonominya. Ini mengapa semua populasi pencari kerja hanya akan berada di Jakarta. x.com/kev_kag/status…

Saya juga berhak dong ngeyangin perut saya sendiri. Saya tahu kalangan menengah ke bawah bakal struggle. Tapi mohon maaf, ini memang kenyataan pahitnya.

Lebanon has always been central to Israel's war plans. They aren't invading "by accident" or in response to particular Hezbollah attacks. Capturing large portions of Lebanon was likely Israel's plan all along. Recall that the U.S. embassy in Beirut was the *only* U.S. embassy partly evacuated prior to the war. Foolishly, the Trump administration failed to evacuate other embassies and military families throughout the Gulf because it expected Iran to quickly fold. They were caught flat-footed by Iran's retaliatory response. But not in Lebanon. The U.S. anticipated and was prepared for a lasting conflict. That's strong evidence that the U.S. knew Israel planned a massive, long-term ground invasion in Lebanon. The Trump administration may not have known the full extent of Israel's plans -- for instance, declaring multiplying "buffer zones" that look suspiciously permanent and full-on ethnic cleansing in the south -- but they knew something qualitatively different from the Iran War was coming. Now Lebanon is a continuing thorn in U.S.-Iran negotiations, albeit hardly the only one. Lebanon is an incredibly fragile country. The U.S. has no interest in Israeli destabilization of it. Nor does it serve U.S. security goals if Israel functionally annexes parts of Lebanon, whether formally or in all-but-name. Yet the U.S. gives Israel $3.8 billion annually in regular military aid, plus billions extra in the last couple of years to help fund its Gaza "war." I wish media coverage would tackle Lebanon more directly, rather than treat it as a less consequential appendage to the Iran War.
