Here’s a look at Korea’s major economic indicators that provide an overview of the country’s recent economic developments

November Economic Trends
In October, stock prices increased, the won strengthened, and Korean treasury yields returned to a decline after an increase at the beginning of the month due to market expectations about major economies’ adjusting the pace of tightening. Housing prices decline is faster in September, and prices of Jeonse (lump-sum deposits with no monthly payments) also saw a faster decline.
Domestic demand has continued to improve gradually due to a recovery in employment and in-person service industries. However, with global inflationary pressure continuously rising, there are continued financial market volatility and economic downside risks due to major economies’ interest rate increases, the Russia-Ukraine war and China’s lockdown measures. Amid continued high inflation and deteriorating economic sentiment due to external factors, there are concerns of economic slowdown such as export slowdowns.
