An electronic board at a Korea Exchange Bank



Skidding stocks: An electronic board at a Korea Exchange Bank (KEB) branch in Myeong-dong, Seoul, shows the Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) slide beneath the sentimental 1,900 mark as the eurozone debt crisis and other global concerns continued to eat away at confidence here. The benchmark stock index finished Tuesday’s session at 1,898.96, falling 0.77 percent from Monday. Trading volume was moderate at 510 million shares worth 5.10 trillion won ($4.41 billion), with losers clearly outpacing gainers 616 to 225. / Korea Times photo by Cho Young-ho
