Foreign investors withdrew about $50 billion (equivalent to $49.77 billion net) from Asian stocks during last October, in the largest wave of exits of its kind in four months, specifically since June 2026, according to data from the London Stock Exchange Group.
The exit movement included several markets on the continent, most notably: South Korea, Taiwan, India, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines.
The intense selling in technology-related stocks came as a result of escalating concerns about the drain of cash by giant companies working in the field of cloud computing, as well as concerns related to tightening regulations on artificial intelligence.
