South Korea's Kospi, it is like my sister, number four prostitute in whole of Kazakhstan, very high. It go up over 5%. I see markets expect Fed, like my neighbor, to keep interest rates steady. This is good, yes? Maybe I buy new tracksuit.

President Lee's Big Plan for Korea Premium

President Lee, he is smart man, like doctor. He want to fix Korea discount, make Korea premium. He say, "eliminate governance flaws, weak transparency, structural distortions." Sounds like fixing my village toilet. He wants bold reforms, like getting new teeth.

Samsung and SK Hynix: High Five

Wall Street, they wait for Fed decision. Like wife waiting for me to bring home money. Futures are flat, not up, not down. Very boring. Everyone wants to know what Fed will do. I hope they don't raise rates, or I cannot afford new rug for my yurt. Chenqui.
