Ideas
Existing data center REITs are winners
As AI data center construction faces obstacles (NIMBY, high financing costs, supply chain delays), companies that already own and operate data centers benefit directly. Equinix and Digital Realty stocks surged about 10% while semis and hyperscalers struggled. These existing facility owners are capturing the AI demand without the building pain.
Buy semis with best FCF, deeply undervalued
Semiconductor companies have the strongest free cash flow in the world, while hyperscalers are burning cash and facing rising debt costs. The current sell-off is a temporary correction driven by capex fears, not fundamentals. Major semis (Samsung Electronics, SK hynix, Micron) are extremely cheap with PER around 5.5x and 40%+ drawdowns. Strong AI-driven demand for HBM and memory persists, with supply still tight. Market is overreacting; investors should buy these semis before the turnaround.
KOSPI at 5.6x PER, near major bottom
The KOSPI has crashed to a trailing PER of about 5.6x, near historical extremes. Technical charts show higher lows forming, suggesting a bottom is being built. Major events this week (semiconductor earnings, FOMC) could confirm the low. It is time to start accumulating Korean equities broadly at these deeply discounted levels.
SK Telecom becomes AI infra play
SK Telecom is evolving from a pure telecom into an AI infrastructure player. It is building large-scale data centers with Nvidia (2GW), AWS, and Anthropic, and integrating AI into its cloud services. These new growth engines are underappreciated and could re-rate the stock from its traditional telecom multiple.
Naver's $10B AI deal transforms value
Naver has secured a massive $10 billion AI data center investment commitment from Nvidia and Brookfield, equivalent to about half of Naver's market cap. This is a transformative event that validates Naver's AI cloud strategy and could dramatically re-rate the stock. Additionally, a regulatory hurdle for the Dunamu merger may soon be resolved, adding further upside.
Noiseless Korean shipbuilding/defense boom ahead
Global rearmament and US Navy modernization are creating a supercycle for Korean shipbuilding and defense. Warship orders are rising, and Korea's advanced submarine and destroyer technology makes it the go-to supplier. Shipbuilding is the noiseless sector, much like HBM a year ago. Major defense and shipyard stocks are set for sustained multi-year growth.
Bitcoin is accumulating, buy for upcycle
Bitcoin is in a prolonged accumulation phase, with limited remaining downside. The structural tailwinds (loose monetary policy, limited supply) remain intact. Even as stocks correct, Bitcoin is attracting sideways buying. The upcoming upcycle will reward patient investors; now is a good zone to accumulate.
Buy MSTR and Metaplanet for BTC leverage
In the next Bitcoin upcycle, leveraged treasury companies will significantly outperform. MicroStrategy (MSTR) remains the dominant leader with the largest Bitcoin holdings and innovative perpetual preferred financing. Metaplanet in Japan is a strong second with a similar model and recent acquisition of a securities firm to expand its financial products. Both will attract massive capital when Bitcoin turns up.
