Odaily News According to the Korea Exchange (KRX) information data system on the 5th, after South Korean financial regulators tightened investment oversight on single-stock leveraged ETFs, related trading volumes have shrunk significantly. The trading value of the 16 single-stock leveraged/inverse ETFs listed in South Korea plummeted 89.8%, from 13.0361 trillion Korean won on July 15, before the regulatory measures—which included higher base margin requirements and investment limits—came into effect, to 1.3329 trillion Korean won by August 4. However, South Korean retail investors' enthusiasm for leveraged ETFs remains undiminished, with funds rotating into overseas leveraged ETFs such as those listed in the US.
During the same period from July 15 to August 4, the top net buy among overseas stocks by South Korean investors was the US fund SOXL (Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X), with net purchases reaching $2.48789 billion. Tesla 2x leveraged ETF (TSLL) ranked sixth with net buys of $214.36 million. The Korea 3x leveraged ETF (KORU) also saw inflows of $130.95 million, ranking eleventh. (Yicai)

Odaily News: White House economic policy reporters revealed that since Warsh took office as Fed Chair, Trump has spoken with him on the phone multiple times, maintaining a rare channel of communication between a president and a central bank governor.
"Fed whisperer" Nick Timiraos replied under the report: "The pace of the president's calls to Warsh has been uneven—sometimes several times within a few days, followed by long stretches of no contact. Trump has sought Warsh's advice on a range of issues, including the economic impact of the Iran war and the rapid rise of artificial intelligence."
Earlier, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent specifically named Nick, noting that one of the highlights of Warsh's tenure as Fed Chair will be watching stenographers disguised as journalists—such as the Wall Street Journal's Nick Timiraos (previously known as the "Fed whisperer")—reduced to reporting behind-the-scenes Fed gossip, because without someone feeding them information, they cannot produce genuine economic or monetary policy analysis.
