Kamsahmida!

Love Korean food. Kim chi, everyone knows, but taegu (right)? Great with hot rice. Oldest pals are Korean. Not much of a fan of those popular Korean drama shows, though. I know jack about Korean stocks, too.

Something to keep an eye on as the Koreas near conflict (or resolution) in the coming days and weeks: South Korean stocks trading in the US.

• KB Financial (KB)
• Shinhan Financial Group (SHG)
• Korea Electric Power (KEP)

All three cratered today thanks to the intensifying dispute caused by North Korea. Fair? Probably not. On the bright side, if NK keeps a lid on it this week, the trio might rally back. If NK loses all its marbles, maybe this.
