Samsung Electronics (005930.KS) has a lower beta (1.3-1.4), diversified business lines including foundry which could narrow valuation gap with TSMC, and ROE around 40-50%. It offers stability and long-term value, suitable for defensive investors.
SK Hynix (000660.KS) is a high-beta, pure-play memory stock with ROE expected at 90% this year, making it the most offensive choice in the current memory super-cycle. Aggressive investors should prefer it for maximum upside.
Because of the massive and growing earnings from Samsung and SK hynix, KOSPI's ROE will remain around 20% through 2028. Even after the growth rate slows, the absolute earnings are huge, and the index will climb roughly 20% per year on a compounding basis, targeting a forward PBR of 1.8–2.0. The idea that low PER alone justifies a sudden re-rating is misleading; the rise will be steady.
Hyundai Motor's valuation is expanding from traditional auto multiples (5x P/E) to 16-17x, reflecting a robotics re-rating driven by Boston Dynamics IPO, factory automation demand, and strong cash flow. The shift from auto to physical AI justifies further upside relative to Tesla's 24x forward P/E.
S-Oil's Shaheen project is nearing completion, which will drive a significant earnings increase. Despite the stock having already risen, it is not the only beneficiary of the oil price decline theme, and the project catalyst supports further upside.
NAVER is attracting attention because of its data center expansion and foreign capital inflows, moving up alongside the US hyperscalers. It belongs to the AI core allocation as a domestic beneficiary of the AI data center build-out.
