Trade batteries, nuclear on short-term momentum
For investors doing short-term momentum trades, secondary battery and nuclear power sectors are favored as tactical momentum plays, separate from the medium-term recovery theme in semiconductors and power equipment.

Year-end rotation favors Korean nuclear, power, robotics.
As Samsung Electronics, SK hynix, and bank stocks consolidate, the Korean market is seeing a rotation into nuclear, power, infrastructure, security, and robotics stocks. These areas have already performed well during large-cap sideways moves and typically attract year-end rotational demand, creating short-term return opportunities even in a not-too-harsh market.

Nuclear takes breather; onsite favored.
Jang Woo-jin said nuclear power remains a long-term necessary solution, but near-term focus is on-site power because nuclear projects take time. Westinghouse stake and funding disappointments have caused a correction, so nuclear is taking a breather for now.

Buy US power infra and nuclear
US investment-related news on the 18th and reports of US wire infrastructure investment are driving Gaon Cable and related power-infrastructure names like LS Materials and Taihan Cable & Solution. Westinghouse stake-acquisition reports are also creating supply in nuclear and power-infrastructure names.

Avoid chasing nuclear and Doosan Enerbility
The nuclear power theme is an event-driven, deadline-bound trade rather than an earnings- or order-driven investment. Such rallies tend to be sold into, and the recent run peaked quickly. Doosan Enerbility, the sector leader, hit resistance and rolled over after the first day, so investors should avoid chasing the nuclear theme after the move.

Nuclear expectations can continue pre-announcement.
Nuclear power remains the live theme within the AI power and value chain. He says the nuclear scale is dominant and an announcement may come soon, so expectations for nuclear-related stocks can continue until that catalyst.

Nuclear sector has live policy catalysts
The nuclear power complex remains supported by live policy catalysts: a US-Korea $100 billion investment deal nearing completion, plans for up to eight nuclear reactors, and the minister's US visit for final negotiations. The uptrend is still intact, though investors should watch the 18th-20th news events and avoid chasing names that have already risen sharply.

Korean nuclear sector gains from US investment
Korean nuclear power stocks are rallying on US investment/MOU expectations and a possible government purchase of Westinghouse shares, which could ease US market access; Korea has the full value chain from fuel rods to EPC construction and a supplier ecosystem, making K-nuclear a potential second semiconductor export growth engine, though analysts advise selectivity based on actual order visibility.

Add nuclear power exposure
In her September strategy, she adds nuclear power as a sector to include alongside leading stocks and tactical ESS exposure, though she gives only a brief allocation endorsement rather than a detailed fundamental thesis.

Nuclear power leads structural AI electricity demand.
Nuclear power has shifted from policy/theme trade into a structural AI electricity-demand story. If KOSPI runs toward 7,200-7,500, nuclear is the group that leads. Government and US investment angles, Westinghouse stake rumors, and the lack of realistic alternative to nuclear for AI power demand over a 5-7 year build cycle support accumulation on dips, though short-term crowding caused upper wicks.

Nuclear power theme has real momentum
The nuclear power theme is leading on expected Westinghouse equity participation by Korea and the US investment project pipeline; government denials are not being believed by the market, and if Korea shares Westinghouse equity, Korean nuclear firms would be able to enter markets jointly and win more orders.

Defense and nuclear benefit from money diffusion
Defense and nuclear sectors were not bad; earnings continued, but money was drained into semiconductors. As semiconductor profit growth plateaus and liquidity broadens, these fundamentally stable sectors should benefit from money diffusion.

Recent hot Korean sectors vulnerable to rates.
Last week's outperformers—secondary batteries, nuclear power, power infrastructure and cosmetics—rose while Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix stayed weak. Park warns that if the market accepts the Fed as hawkish and rates rise, these recently hot sectors could lose momentum, so the more important task is responding to that risk rather than chasing their recent strength.

Buy nuclear, power, renewables dips.
Nuclear power, power equipment, and renewables tied to AI infrastructure should keep rotating and be used as buying opportunities if Monday's weak open creates a dip. Renewables such as wind and solar have not yet risen and could benefit if Democrats win the US midterm elections because renewable energy is their flagship policy.

Nuclear rotation driven by Korean investment policy.
Korean nuclear power names are being rotated into because of strong policy and investment narratives such as the first major Korean investment project, Westinghouse joint acquisition talk, government commentary, and possible September order rumors. Flows chase the strongest AI-linked power and energy stories, and nuclear shares rise and then reassert after dips.

Westinghouse deal boosts Korean nuclear orders.
News that Korean investors will co-acquire a Westinghouse stake with U.S. partners triggered a two-day surge in Korean nuclear power stocks. Lee argues this can restore the ability to jointly bid with U.S. partners for overseas nuclear orders in Europe and the Middle East, similar to the UAE experience. Despite weak earnings, this is a strong event-driven moment for nuclear power names.

Nuclear has domestic momentum, needs patience.
Korean nuclear stocks still have domestic momentum because the 12th Basic Power Plan and upward revisions in 2040 power demand imply roughly four new nuclear units, versus two previously. However, the Westinghouse investment story was denied and overseas catalysts are limited, so the theme may need time.

Nuclear stocks still early AI-driven upside.
Nuclear power stocks have only risen for about 1.5-2 years, much shorter than other heavy industry sectors, leaving substantial upside. AI-driven energy demand will create an energy shortage; nuclear is the most space-efficient solution. Despite past nuclear phase-out, current policy and universal energy needs make nuclear indispensable regardless of political shifts. Doosan Enerbility is the representative stock leading the early rise.

Nuclear irreplaceable, buy on trend confirmation.
Korea is uniquely capable of vertical integration in nuclear power plant construction, giving it a cost advantage that no other country can match. Post-war electricity infrastructure repair, combined with the current government's pragmatic push for nuclear and SMR projects, creates a powerful long-term demand story. Still, near-term price action is choppy because semiconductor strength is absorbing liquidity, so investors should use split buying and wait for the 10-day moving average to slope up clearly before increasing exposure.

Avoid nuclear and construction without orders.
Chasing nuclear power and construction/reconstruction is premature because they still lack actual orders and numbers; the moves are based on expectations. Sectors with visible orders, such as defense, transformers, and shipbuilding, have better timing support.

Vietnam nuclear project benefits Korean nuclear.
Vietnam ended cooperation with Japan on the Ninh Thuan 2 nuclear project, and Korea signed an MOU last August; the guest expects related news within days. Even if the project economics are weak for the state and financing is difficult, Korean nuclear equipment suppliers such as Doosan Enerbility would still earn from main-equipment orders, with pipe and fitting companies also benefiting, so the Korean nuclear industry outlook is positive.
