SK Telecom is trading 5.55% down at $32.01, amid a sharp Asian technology sell-off after hotter U.S. inflation raised rate concerns.

  • Reuters reported South Korea’s KOSPI fell 8% on October 15.
  • SK Telecom clarified it has no concrete plan for a reported additional 5 GW of overseas AI data-center capacity; its domestic 15 GW plan remains under review. Available reporting does not establish how much the clarification contributed to this pre-market move.
