South Korea’s Export Prices Fall for 4th Straight Month ℹ️
South Korea's export prices declined 1% year-over-year in August 2025, with manufactured goods prices falling and agricultural product prices rising, while exports to the U.S. dropped 12% due to a 15% tariff.
Persistent export price declines signal potential economic headwinds, particularly in manufacturing sectors. The U.S. tariff impact and consecutive monthly drops suggest challenging global trade conditions that could negatively influence market sentiment and economic performance.
