SK Hynix said it is considering various shareholder-return options but has made no decision.

Caixin Securities chief economist Yuan Chuang said recent offshore shocks drove notable A‑share volatility but on Oct. 23 afternoon multiple broad-based ETFs registered a sustained pickup in volume, and the market rebounded on higher turnover, improving sentiment.
