Song Jaekyung — CEO

Summary

Song Jaekyung, CEO of Dimension Investment Advisory, interprets the sharp semiconductor sell-off as a healthy rotation driven by leveraged positioning rather than a fundamental breakdown. He sees strong earnings providing support, views the SK hynix ADR listing as a positive near-term catalyst, and expects bank stocks and deeply undervalued low-PBR plays to benefit from Korea’s economic strength and upcoming tax legislation. On commodities, he describes a U-shaped recovery for oil and warns against aggressive short bets.

  • Semiconductor sell-off is a leverage-driven rotation, not the end of the bull market.
  • Samsung and SK hynix earnings are strong; buy the dip with ADR listing as a catalyst.
  • Korean bank stocks poised to rally as overlooked cyclical sector on robust GDP growth.
  • Low-PBR stocks set to re-rate if legislation penalizing sub-0.8x valuations passes in July.
  • Crude oil seen in a gradual U-shaped recovery; aggressive shorting is risky.
  • Hyundai Motor Group needs concrete restructuring steps; near-term momentum is absent.
Ideas
Buy semiconductors on earnings strength.
Semiconductor earnings remain exceptionally strong for Samsung Electronics and SK hynix through at least the first half of next year. The recent sharp sell-off is driven by excessive leveraged positioning and profit-taking, not fundamental deterioration. The upcoming SK hynix ADR listing will serve as a positive catalyst, and the market overreacted to Meta’s spending comments. The sell-off creates a buying opportunity in the semiconductor leaders.
Bank stocks to rise on economy.
Korea’s economy is robust, with GDP growth forecasts as high as 4% and record exports. Cyclical sectors like banks have been sidelined for three months while semiconductors rallied. With healthy rotation underway, bank stocks are poised to benefit from improving economic momentum and catch-up trade, mirroring similar moves in US financials.
Oil in U-shaped recovery, don't short.
The oil market has flipped from backwardation to contango, signaling the market does not expect a violent price spike. However, global crude inventories are at historically low levels, and China will need to restock. This supports a gradual U-shaped recovery in oil prices. Aggressive short positions are risky because the downside is limited, and the path of least resistance is moderately higher.
