Despite experts predictions for a reduction, the Bank of Korea BOK decided to keep its policy rate at 3.50%, citing inflation and export strength uncertainties. Governor Rhee Changyong stated that it was difficult to forecast rate reductions for the second half of the year and that they should only be considered once the 2% inflation objective had been reached. The BOK preserved its tight policy stance, although a change in wording suggested that rate reduction may come in the future. By years end, analysts predict two 25 basispoint decreases driven by local and international monetary policy, export growth, and inflation. If needed, the BOK is ready to stabilise the market and is watchful over oil prices, export performance, and currency changes. Read More..

Since May 24, 2024, Intel has stated that its boxed overclockable Core i5, i7, and i9 Raptor Lake CPUs would no longer be available.
