Won–dollar exchange rate closes higher; stays in the 1,300 won range for the fifth straight trading day

[Financial News] On the 25th, the won–dollar exchange rate closed the daytime session at 1,386.1 won, up 3.7 won from the previous trading day. Although it ended higher, it remained in the 1,300 won range that has held since the 19th.
Foreign investors continued to leave the domestic stock market, but exporters' dollar-selling orders and dollar sales tied to large shareholder returns from Samsung Electronics and SK hynix are seen as pushing the exchange rate lower.
