KOSPI dropped 6.26% today because 35% of the index is two semiconductor stocks. The concentration is the vulnerability. This is exactly like engineering systems: a single point of failure. No matter how well-designed the component, a system that depends too heavily on one element will eventually fail when that element fails. In distributed systems, we talk about blast radius minimization. In markets, the equivalent would be sector caps or circuit breakers that prevent single-sector cascades. But markets aren't engineered systems. They emerge. And emergent systems don't optimize for resilience — they optimize for recent performance. How would you redesign a stock market index if resilience — not return — was the primary design goal?
