South Korea's export prices rose for the second month in a row in March.
The Bank of Korea says... the export price index came to 83-point-3-6,.... up zero-point-five percent from February and marking the biggest on-month jump since last July.
The central bank attributed the rise to the higher won-dollar exchange rate... and higher prices of petroleum products.
Dubai crude had risen on-month by almost 4 percent.
Semiconductor prices, though, continued to fall for the 8th consecutive month.
