South Korea Turns to AI to Monitor Online-Driven Stock Manipulation

South Korea’s Financial Services Commission (FSC) said the Korea Exchange (KRX) will begin operating an AI-driven market monitoring system from 3 February.

The system aims to strengthen early responses to market manipulation and other unfair trading activities.

Authorities noted a recent increase in attempts to influence or manipulate stock prices through the spread of false information online.

Verifying the large volume of data circulating in cyberspace has remained difficult.

The system follows comprehensive measures announced jointly by the FSC, the Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) and the KRX in July 2025.

Those measures were aimed at addressing unfair trading practices in the stock market. The KRX developed the AI-based system to improve the speed and accuracy of detection and analysis.

The monitoring system was trained using online posts, reported cases of spam text messages and YouTube videos.

It also analysed stock price movements of items previously identified as potential targets of unfair trading. Based on objective indicators learned during training, the AI tracks trends in online information.

It assigns scores to individual stocks and flags those with a high probability of unfair trading activity.

The results will help authorities assess whether suspicious transactions have occurred. They will also support more detailed examinations where necessary.

With the system in place, authorities can respond more quickly to suspicious trading. The system will expand the range of online information monitored in real time.

Automated detection will also reduce the time required for initial analysis.

The FSC and the KRX said they will use the system to strengthen oversight and enforcement against unfair trading in capital markets.

EUR/CHF slides as Euro struggles post-inflation data

The post EUR/CHF slides as Euro struggles post-inflation data appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. EUR/CHF weakens for a second straight session as the euro struggles to recover post-Eurozone inflation data. Eurozone core inflation steady at 2.3%, headline CPI eases to 2.0% in August. SNB maintains a flexible policy outlook ahead of its September 25 decision, with no immediate need for easing. The Euro (EUR) trades under pressure against the Swiss Franc (CHF) on Wednesday, with EUR/CHF extending losses for the second straight session as the common currency struggles to gain traction following Eurozone inflation data. At the time of writing, the cross is trading around 0.9320 during the American session. The latest inflation data from Eurostat showed that Eurozone price growth remained broadly stable in August, reinforcing the European Central Bank’s (ECB) cautious stance on monetary policy. The Core Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP), which excludes volatile items such as food and energy, rose 2.3% YoY, in line with both forecasts and the previous month’s reading. On a monthly basis, core inflation increased by 0.3%, unchanged from July, highlighting persistent underlying price pressures in the bloc. Meanwhile, headline inflation eased to 2.0% YoY in August, down from 2.1% in July and slightly below expectations. On a monthly basis, prices rose just 0.1%, missing forecasts for a 0.2% increase and decelerating from July’s 0.2% rise. The inflation release follows last week’s ECB policy decision, where the central bank kept all three key interest rates unchanged and signaled that policy is likely at its terminal level. While officials acknowledged progress in bringing inflation down, they reiterated a cautious, data-dependent approach going forward, emphasizing the need to maintain restrictive conditions for an extended period to ensure price stability. On the Swiss side, disinflation appears to be deepening. The Producer and Import Price Index dropped 0.6% in August, marking a sharp 1.8% annual decline. Broader inflation remains…
