Samsung Electronics and SK hynix are the leading stocks driven by strong earnings, low valuation (PER ~7x for Samsung), and reflexive buying momentum. They should be held through volatility and not sold, as the AI momentum and fundamental improvements remain intact. Any short-term correction presents a buying opportunity for those not yet invested, and investors should rotate out of non-leading positions to increase exposure to these names.
