Ideas
Buy Sany on global construction equipment demand.
Wang presents Sany Heavy Industry as a global construction machinery leader with 15% global market share and 30% share in Southeast Asia/Africa. Q2 revenue and margins exceeded consensus, overseas revenue reached about 61% of sales, and the company is expected to show around 25% three-year CAGR. He maintains a buy view and argues the multiple could re-rate further if China property stabilizes, overseas sales keep expanding, and mining capex recovers. Park adds that data center construction equipment demand is also helping the sector.
Geopolitical risk drives oil and energy higher.
The US-Iran conflict escalated with strikes on Iran during market hours, Hormuz tanker attacks, Iranian retaliation threats, and Trump's hard-line response. WTI jumped to $90.8 and Brent to $95.1, pushing energy equities to record highs; XLE hit its highest close since its 1998 listing. Hae-soo frames this as a supply-risk premium that keeps oil and energy stocks supported until the geopolitical tension resolves.
AI data center power contracts boost utilities.
Tech hyperscalers are signing large long-term nuclear and geothermal power contracts for AI data centers, turning AI power demand from a forecast into contracted demand. Constellation Energy rose on its AI infrastructure power agreements, NextEra Energy and Vistra also gained, and Fervo Energy surged 28% after signing a 396MW geothermal deal with Google. This supports names supplying clean, utility-scale power to AI data centers.
Bitcoin likely bottoming; buy 50-week breakout.
Bitcoin is consolidating below its 50-week moving average after a decline. The gap between the 50-week and 200-week moving averages is narrowing, and a drop to the 200-week level around $64,000 is viewed as unlikely. Jun-hyuk thinks the bottom may already have formed and the next bullish leg should be expected when Bitcoin strongly breaks above the 50-week moving average.
Dell AI server leverage beats strongly.
Dell reported a strong quarter with revenue of $46.97bn, up 57.7% YoY, AI server revenue of $16.4bn, up 100% YoY, record $60.9bn quarterly orders, $95bn AI server backlog, and EPS of $7.04 versus $4.90 consensus. It guided Q3 revenue to $49bn and FY27 revenue to $192bn, well above consensus. Operating leverage is large because the infrastructure group margin expanded from 8.8% to 15%, and management said enterprise, sovereign, and neocloud AI server demand is broadening beyond hyperscalers. This cross-checks that AI infrastructure demand is genuine.
Lenovo enterprise AI server margins improving.
Wang says Lenovo's infrastructure business margin jumped from 10% to 15% and could go toward 20%, with orders more than doubling quarter-on-quarter. Enterprise customers that cannot rely only on hyperscaler cloud are building their own AI servers for security reasons, and Dell and Lenovo as top server vendors are selling to those customers at higher margins. This broadens AI infrastructure demand beyond big tech.
Rising rates favor Korean bank stocks.
Rising interest rates are improving bank earnings expectations, and Korean bank and financial names such as Shinhan Financial Group and Hana Financial Group hit 52-week highs. The domestic flow summary shows bank stocks gaining as rate-sensitive beneficiaries in the current high-rate environment.
SK Innovation US ESS contract drives strength.
SK Innovation has risen for consecutive sessions after securing a roughly 1.5T won ESS supply contract to the US, showing the AI data center and US grid-scale ESS demand story is translating into direct orders for Korean battery companies. This contract adds specific revenue momentum to the stock.
Buy Hanwha Aerospace on 2030 valuation.
Park uses Hanwha Aerospace as a valuation example: if its 2030 target of 70T won revenue and 10T won operating profit implies a 150T won market cap, then sharp price drops on macro or defense-sector concerns create better entry points rather than reasons to sell. He argues investors should buy more when price falls if the long-term valuation thesis remains intact, despite the stock having had a rights issue.
Cosmetics valuations stretched; expect consolidation.
Korean cosmetics export data is strong, but OEM/ODM names like Cosmax and Cosmecca Korea have already reached the upper end of their valuation range and estimate revision momentum is fading. He thinks the stocks may consolidate until earnings confirm the raised outlook, so chasing here is unattractive despite good export data.
Buy LFP cathode leaders on ESS bottleneck.
Meritz research argues the 2026-2027 LFP battery bottleneck will come from material supply self-sufficiency, driven by US FEOC and IRA policy and ESS and data center demand. Domestic cell makers are scaling LFP capacity, so Korean cathode suppliers must be used instead of Chinese material. LNF is the top pick because it already supplies LFP material, followed by Pino and Posco Future M, with order momentum expected to continue.
