Oversold sectors will rebound sharply
Oversold sectors that were unfairly hit during the leveraged ETF-driven sell-off will experience sharp rebounds. Short covering is already underway, and institutional money is flowing into these areas. The anticipated regulation on single-stock leveraged ETFs will reduce concentration in large-cap tech and trigger rebalancing, further lifting power equipment, nuclear, automobile, and securities stocks.

Avoid inconsistent, economy-dependent sectors
Stocks lacking consistent secular growth should be avoided. This includes cyclical companies (materials, discretionary), financials (banks, insurers), consumer packaged goods with low single-digit growth, and high-fixed-cost businesses like automakers, airlines, and department stores. Their earnings are hostage to the economy and they cannot make money in all market environments.

Foreign capitulation creates auto/KOSDAQ comeback trade.
Foreign investors have heavily sold autos and KOSDAQ stocks, driving them to lows. With won strengthening and risk appetite returning, foreign flows are likely to come back into these most-sold, low-foreign-ownership pockets, creating a rebound trade.

Buy Korean non-chip sector leaders
Korean non-semiconductor sectors—defense, shipbuilding, power equipment, and automobiles—should be overweighted. JPMorgan has named Korea its top-pick market excluding semiconductors, citing solid earnings and governance improvements in these sectors. Additionally, extreme market concentration has left many of these stocks deeply oversold and thinly traded, creating the conditions for a sharp reversal on any positive trigger. The speaker recommends gradually accumulating leading stocks in each sector, with shipbuilding (e.g. Hyundai Heavy Industries) still lagging and offering opportunity.

Avoid industrials, auto, aerospace on USMCA.
USMCA review tail risks are asymmetric and underappreciated; industrials, auto, and aerospace sectors are most exposed to trade uncertainty.

Auto sector attractive for rotation.
Korean auto stocks are attractively valued and have been beaten down; as sector rotation continues, autos are a logical next candidate to catch up. With reasonable earnings and low expectations, they offer decent upside in a broadening market.

Auto sector resilient, labor noise temporary.
The automobile sector is resilient, with Hyundai Motor and Kia holding above the 20-day moving average. Recent labor-related noise (Hyundai Motor's 11% drop) is a temporary issue; government and public opinion support management, and the stock is expected to recover quickly. The sector remains a core holding for the rebound.

Auto loan stress and record debt levels will reduce new car sales, especially financed purchases. The First Trust NASDAQ Global Auto Index (CARZ) tracks major automakers and suppliers; lower demand and higher financing costs hurt earnings. Short the auto sector ETF as a broad hedge against consumer auto spending contraction. EV subsidies or trade policies could boost specific automakers; a recession may already be priced in.

Bullish on U.S. car companies.
The tax deduction for interest on American-made car loans is boosting demand and causing car companies to expand significantly, leading to growth in the sector.

Bullish on hybrids over EVs in US.
Skeptical about EV adoption in the US despite higher gas prices; believes hybrids, especially non-plug-in hybrids, will see more demand as they require less adjustment and help save on fuel costs, and hybrids have been gaining strength.

Goolsbee highlights that the Chicago Fed District (a hub for auto production) is "very amped up" about USMCA renegotiations and tariffs on "parts, components, supplies." The auto industry relies on a global/North American supply chain. Goolsbee explicitly states that CEOs are pausing hiring because "we don't know what the rules of the road are going to be." Uncertainty regarding tariffs freezes capital expenditure and complicates pricing models for legacy automakers. Avoid the sector until trade policy (USMCA/Tariffs) is clarified. A sudden, favorable resolution to trade talks could spark a relief rally.

Mazda CEO confirms the new 15% tariffs impact their operations. While they are ramping US production (Alabama), key models like the Mazda 3 are imported and face immediate cost hikes. Automakers are in the crosshairs of the new Section 122 tariffs. They face a choice: absorb the 15% cost (crushing margins) or pass it to consumers (crushing demand). With affordability already an issue, this sector faces a "lose-lose" policy environment. AVOID AUTO SECTOR. Administration grants specific exemptions for auto imports from allies.
