Trade Ideas
Avoid MSTR and Coinbase
MicroStrategy (MSTR) and Coinbase (COIN) should be avoided as Bitcoin continues to weaken, with Strategy selling Bitcoin and preferred dividend pressure mounting. Technical breakdown below $73,000 support and further selling by large holders signal downside risk for crypto-exposed equities.

HPE earnings beat, stock to rise
HP Enterprise (HPE) reported strong earnings and guidance, with revenue up 40% YoY and operating income up 132%. Management confirmed demand is strong across AI data centers, networking, and storage, and that growth is constrained by supply, not demand. Earnings revisions will drive the stock higher.
Park Se-ik CEO, ex-Chief Strategist 80:31
Samsung Electro-Mechanics strong upside
Samsung Electro-Mechanics (009150.KS) is a key beneficiary of AI-driven shortages in MLCC and substrates. Capacity utilization is high, ASP is rising sharply (potentially 20%+ annually), and earnings could exceed current estimates significantly, leading to a massive re-rating similar to past cycles.
Park Se-ik CEO, ex-Chief Strategist 80:58
LG Innotek substrate upside
LG Innotek (011070.KS) will benefit from the same AI substrate shortage as Samsung Electro-Mechanics, with potential for ASP increases of 50-150% in substrates. Despite lower margins, the earnings leverage is substantial, and the stock has significant upside if past cycle patterns repeat.

Semiconductor index to keep rising
The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (SOX) will continue to rise driven by strong AI infrastructure demand, as evidenced by NVIDIA's AI PC announcement, HP's earnings beat, and sustained demand for AI chips and memory. The index remains in an uptrend and any dips will be bought, making it a core holding.
