As South Korea faces political turmoil, its stock market lags behind Taiwan, which is thriving due to the AI boom. Taiwan's market capitalization has surged, surpassing South Korea's by approximately $950 billion. While both nations are vulnerable to potential US tariffs under the incoming Trump administration, investors view Taiwan as more resilient thanks to its stronger ties to major tech firms and a booming AI sector. In contrast, South Korea's stock performance has suffered, particularly due to Samsung's struggles. Analysts predict continued outperformance for Taiwan as AI remains a driving force in the market.
