Investor Trading Trends for the 11th: Foreign and Institutional Sell-Off

Finance · Investment Banks/Brokers · yonhap_finance · 2026-09-11

On the 11th, foreign and institutional investors dominated the selling side in the Korean stock market, while retail investors acted as net buyers.

What Happened

Market Trading Activity: On the 11th, institutional investors net sold 1.22 trillion KRW in the KOSPI market and 215.9 billion KRW in the KOSDAQ market. Foreign investors also maintained a strong selling position, offloading 2.3 trillion KRW and 313.7 billion KRW respectively.

Retail Investor Response: Amid the heavy selling pressure from foreign and institutional players, retail investors stepped in as net buyers. They purchased 1.86 trillion KRW in the KOSPI and 511.6 billion KRW in the KOSDAQ, helping to mitigate the overall market decline.

Institutional Breakdown: Within the institutional sector, financial investment firms led the selling in the KOSPI with over 1 trillion KRW in net sales. Conversely, pension funds showed a contrasting trend by net buying 265.9 billion KRW in the KOSPI.

Market Sentiment: The significant capital outflow from foreign and institutional investors has dampened overall market sentiment. Investors are closely monitoring whether this selling trend will persist or if supply-demand dynamics will stabilize in the near term.
