path. The won strengthened, while the benchmark bond yield fell.

and 2.78%, respectively, while the sub-index for electric and
electronics         climbed 2.03%.
    
    ** Among other heavyweights, battery makers LG Chem
            and Samsung SDI             added 0.37% and 0.98%,
respectively.
    
    ** Focus this week will be on a weekly U.S. unemployment
report and May private payrolls data due later in the day, and
followed by monthly jobs numbers on Friday for signs of an
economic rebound.
    
    ** Foreigners were net buyers of 78.3 billion won ($70.57
million) worth of shares on the main board.
    
    ** The won was quoted at 1,110.1 per dollar on the onshore
settlement platform           , 0.29% higher than its previous
close at 1,113.3.
    
    ** In offshore trading, the won        was quoted at 1,109.7
per dollar, up 0.1% from the previous day, while in
non-deliverable forward trading its one-month contract
              was quoted at 1,109.3.
    
    ** In money and debt markets, June futures on three-year
treasury bonds         rose 0.05 points to 110.85.
