Why Emerging Market Stocks Are Plunging in Early June 2026

On June 6, 2026, emerging market ETFs are in a broad sell-off, with South Korea's EWY down 19% in five days and Brazil's EWZ down 4.7%. Lucas and Luna drill into one specific trigger: the Nasdaq's 4% crash on June 5, which hammered tech-heavy EM markets as traders fled chip stocks. They unpack how the AI capex blowup—Google paying SpaceX $920 million a month for compute—is spooking investors, and why South Korea, the biggest memory chip exporter, is getting crushed. They also tie in the strong dollar backdrop, with the trade-weighted dollar index at 118.9, and ask whether this is a buying opportunity or the start of a deeper EM rout. #EmergingMarkets #SouthKorea #EWY #NasdaqCrash #ChipStocks #AICapex #Google #SpaceX #StrongDollar #EMselloff #Samsung #SKHynix #Economics #Investing #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #MarketVolatility #TechStocks Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
