YONHAP reports South Korea's Ministry of Economy and Finance held a roundtable with semiconductor experts after US midterm-driven concerns about AI data-center regulation and market volatility.

They added that, despite some financial-market worries, they have seen no clear signals of reduced AI investment or chip demand. Expansion of domestic semiconductor firms' long-term supply contracts should keep the near-term demand base stable.
