根据彭博智库的数据，追踪三星电子和 SK 海力士的杠杆产品在八月份分别流出了 3.81 亿美元和 6.01 亿美元，这将是这些产品自五月下旬推出以来的首次单月资金流出。
这些旨在追踪晶片制造商每日两倍波动的产品被指责加剧了市场的整体波动，特别是在七月份全球 AI 类股暴跌期间。为此，韩国监管机构提高了新投资者的最低存款要求，并强制要求进行模拟交易。
Due to cooling investor enthusiasm for artificial intelligence (AI) trades and increased regulatory measures to curb demand, leveraged ETFs tied to South Korean chipmakers have seen nearly $1 billion in outflows this month.
According to data from Bloomberg Intelligence, leveraged products tracking Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix recorded outflows of $381 million and $601 million, respectively, in August, marking their first monthly outflow since launching in late May.
These products, which are designed to track twice the daily movements of the chipmakers, have been blamed for magnifying broader market volatility, especially during a global AI rout in July. Consequently, South Korean regulators have raised the minimum deposit requirement for new investors and mandated a mock trading session.
