Real Market: Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix 2x ETFs Created Volatility Hell.. Only One Hope Amid Stock Plunge! Foreigners Buy 2 Trillion Won in Futures at Market Close.. What Will Monday's Result Be? | CEO Lee Ju-hyun

Summary

CEO Lee Ju-hyun analyzes the June 26 Korean market plunge, where Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix fell over 10%, and explains that single-stock leveraged ETFs are amplifying volatility in an already weak market. He argues that ex-semiconductors, most Korean stocks are in a bear market, but the AI semiconductor super cycle remains intact with Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron deeply undervalued. He highlights semiconductor equipment stocks as the only domestic bright spot, sees a potential Monday bounce driven by foreign futures buying, and recommends diversifying into US defensive sectors.

• Korean market plunged with Samsung and SK Hynix leading declines; KOSPI down 5.8%, KOSDAQ down 4%.
• Single-stock leveraged/inverse ETFs on Samsung and SK Hynix are creating extreme volatility and distorting the market.
• Excluding Samsung and SK Hynix, most Korean stocks are down 30–40% from highs, indicating a stealth bear market.
• Lee Ju-hyun remains bullish on AI semiconductor leaders Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix, and Micron Technology, citing deep undervaluation based on historical P/E bands.
• Korean semiconductor equipment/materials stocks showed relative strength and are the only investable bright spot domestically.
• Foreigners bought over 2 trillion won in KOSPI futures at the close, setting up a potential short-term bounce if US markets hold support.
• He advises overseas investors to rotate into US defensive sectors—energy, consumer staples, healthcare—as the Fed prioritizes inflation.
• Key KOSPI technical support at 7,400–7,500; trend remains intact as long as this level holds.
