SEOUL, Aug 27 (Reuters) -Round-up of South Korean financial markets:
** South Korean shares fell on Tuesday as heavyweight chipmakers tracked Nvidia's NVDA.O weakness ahead of the U.S. artificial intelligence firm's quarterly earnings this week.
** The won traded marginally lower, while the benchmark bond yield jumped to a one-month high after the government's budget proposal for next year.
** The benchmark KOSPI .KS11 closed down 8.76 points, or 0.32%, at 2,689.25, extending losses for the third straight session.
** South Korea's government plans to raise budget spending to $510 billion for 2025, although the pace of growth is less than previously projected, as Seoul seeks to tighten fiscal discipline.
** In the proposal announced on Tuesday, the government said it plans to issue 201.3 trillion won ($151.22 billion) of treasury bonds in 2025, sharply up from 158.4 trillion won planned for this year.
** "The market was in a wait-and-see mood, with semiconductor stocks falling ahead of Nvidia earnings," said Seo Sang-young, an analyst at Mirae Asset Securities.
** Chipmaker Samsung Electronics 005930.KS fell 0.39% and peer SK Hynix 000660.KS lost 2.56%, after Nvidia fell more than 2% overnight.
** SK Innovation 096770.KS, the parent of the country's largest oil refiner and battery maker SK On, climbed 3.10%, after its shareholders approved a merger with energy affiliate SK E&S as part of a major restructuring of the conglomerate.
** Automakers and e-commerce firms also declined.
** Of the total 937 traded issues, 437 shares rose, while 424 fell.
** Foreigners were net sellers of shares worth 407.9 billion won.
** The won was quoted at 1,331.0 per dollar on the onshore settlement platform KRW=KFTC, 0.09% lower than its previous close at 1,329.8.
** The most liquid three-year Korean treasury bond yield rose by 5.6 basis points to 2.947%, while the benchmark 10-year yield rose jumped 10.5 basis points to 3.079%, hitting its highest since July 26.
