Summary

The video discusses the April 20 KOSPI/KOSDAQ market close, which rose slightly despite geopolitical tensions from Iran-Israel. Speakers highlight strong earnings expectations for SK Hynix, a breakout in Jusung Engineering's ALG technology, and strength in PCB and semiconductor equipment stocks. They advise caution on battery stocks and Korean quantum themes while suggesting selective opportunities in laggards like NCsoft and defensive plays like Samsung Electro-Mechanics.

  • KOSPI +0.7% to 6219, KOSDAQ +0.4% to 1174, institutions supported the market.
  • SK Hynix surged 3% on expectations of explosive 2Q earnings, driven by DRAM price catch-up and HBM leadership.
  • Jusung Engineering hit daily limit up on news of ALG technology breakthrough, with potential re-rating to 40x P/E.
  • Isu Petasys and Doosan rose on AI PCB demand and correlation with Broadcom.
  • Samsung Electro-Mechanics continued its strong uptrend without touching its 5-day moving average.
  • Battery stocks like Samsung SDI were seen as burdensome; LG Energy Solution was preferred but sector best traded tactically.
  • Korean quantum stocks were dismissed as speculative themes; US quantum names like IonQ were suggested as alternatives.
  • Laggard NCsoft was flagged for a potential earnings-driven rebound in 1Q results.
Trade Ideas
Kim Jang-yeol Reporter, The Bell 12:43
2Q earnings momentum explosive for Hynix.
SK Hynix's 2Q earnings momentum will be explosive because DRAM price increases that were smaller in Q1 due to product mix and timing will fully hit in Q2, and the company remains the leader in HBM. Earnings estimates for 2025 imply 40% growth, supporting further upside.
Kim Jang-yeol Reporter, The Bell 19:58
ALG tech re-rating to 40x+ P/E.
Jusung Engineering's new ALG (Atomic Layer Generation) technology is a significant breakthrough that could allow the company to move beyond traditional ALD and supply to TSMC and Samsung, leading to a valuation re-rating from ~20-30x to 40-50x P/E, similar to Hanmi Semiconductor or EO Technics.
Kim Jang-yeol Reporter, The Bell 24:51
Isu Petasys rebounding with Broadcom correlation.
Isu Petasys saw a valuation correction from 50x to 30x P/E, making it less burdensome. It is moving in lockstep with Broadcom and benefiting from increased AI networking and MLCC demand. The chart shows it is approaching prior highs, suggesting further upside.
Kim Jang-yeol Reporter, The Bell 35:48
Samsung SDI upside limited, avoid.
Samsung SDI has rallied to its target zone (50-60 million won range from 80 million won high). Further upside is limited and risk-reward is unattractive. Better to avoid chasing here; the stock is now burdensome.
Kim Jang-yeol Reporter, The Bell 36:02
LG Energy Solution relatively comfortable.
Within the battery sector, LG Energy Solution is relatively more comfortable than Samsung SDI. The ESS growth data (Q1 +33% YoY in March) supports the theme, but the sector should be traded tactically rather than held long-term.
Kim Jang-yeol Reporter, The Bell 56:17
Korean quantum stocks are risky themes.
Korean quantum computing and quantum security stocks like Maxgate are pure speculation without real technology or earnings. They are theme plays that can drop quickly. Investors should avoid them and instead consider US quantum companies like IonQ if they want exposure.
Kim Jang-yeol Reporter, The Bell 61:03
Samsung Electro-Mechanics strong uptrend hold.
Samsung Electro-Mechanics is in a very strong uptrend, not even touching its 5-day moving average. For a mid-to-large cap stock once momentum sets in, the rally can persist longer. Hold until the trend clearly breaks.
Kim Jang-yeol Reporter, The Bell 69:08
NCsoft earnings turnaround potential.
NCsoft is a laggard with a massive earnings forecast for this year. If the 1Q earnings report confirms the expected rebound, the stock could see a meaningful move. The monthly chart shows it has barely moved from the bottom, so it is still early.
