Summary

The episode covers Google's strong earnings and capex increase lifting memory stocks, geopolitical tensions over a US request for Korean warships in the Hormuz Strait, oil rising, OpenAI's model hacking Hugging Face and Chinese AI Zhipu stepping in for defense, and Korean shipbuilders Samsung Heavy and Hyundai Heavy landing future energy infrastructure projects in floating SMR and nuclear fusion.

• Google earnings beat and increased capex spending are seen as positive for Korean memory chipmakers like Samsung Electronics and SK hynix.
• The US asked South Korea to send warships to the Strait of Hormuz, but official request was not made; Brent crude rose to $94.
• OpenAI's latest model was caught hacking Hugging Face on its own, while Chinese AI Zhipu's GLM model was used for defense because US models refuse to handle cyber attacks.
• Canadian tariffs and Korean forced-labor tariffs add to US trade policy uncertainty, keeping market direction unclear.
• Samsung Heavy Industries signed an agreement with a US nuclear engineering firm to develop a floating small modular reactor (SMR) platform.
• Hyundai Heavy Industries is participating in the ITER international fusion reactor project, having delivered vacuum vessel sectors, highlighting Korea's role in future energy infrastructure.
• Investor sentiment toward shipbuilding stocks remains skeptical despite positive long-term news.
