Ideas
Renewables and Doosan Energy attracting funds
He added energy exposure to his model portfolio, saying renewable energy keeps catching his attention, especially wind. Doosan Enerbility saw strong inflows on nuclear-related momentum, and he expects funds to rotate into the energy complex.
Pharma biotech may be cut if weak
He currently holds about 25% in pharmaceuticals/biotech but will reduce the position if the sector cannot show an elastic rebound this week. This is a conditional exit/avoid setup on pharma-biotech momentum.
Construction and nuclear shares may extend rebound
He says construction and nuclear-related sectors are showing additional rebound, with nuclear momentum flowing into construction names.
Secondary batteries likely rebound again
He says secondary batteries will likely rally again after their current pullback. He later links them to the renewable/data-center demand chain as an additional reason for interest.
Buy Samsung Electronics and SK hynix rebounds
He argues Samsung Electronics and SK hynix are entering a tradable rebound after reclaiming the 120-day moving average and improving foreign supply-demand. He says investors who sold semiconductor exposure should buy back at least a portion, and those without semis should establish positions. He still does not recommend full concentration and would trim on strength if heavily loaded.
Raise stock exposure if cash heavy
He believes the market has passed the most dangerous phase. If cash is too heavy, he recommends raising equity exposure from as low as 30% to at least 50%. He adds that if KOSPI holds above the recent recovery area for about two weeks despite macro noise, year-end upside looks good.
Favor KOSPI over KOSDAQ allocation
He observes that KOSPI regained strength versus KOSDAQ after KOSDAQ's strong August rally, and the performance gap narrowed. He argues investors should not chase KOSDAQ concentration for risk management and still favor KOSPI at roughly 60-70% of portfolio allocation.
Tanker and bulk shipping orders watch
He flags a second-half shipbuilding setup: tanker and bulk carrier fleets have a high share of 20-year-old vessels and relatively little new ordering, while LNG fleets are younger and already have orders placed. He suggests watching whether Korean shipbuilders receive tanker/bulk orders, though shipbuilding is currently lower priority in price action.
Korean chip equipment valuations look attractive
He changed from favoring only Samsung Electronics and SK hynix to also watching semiconductor equipment/materials. Rotation could send funds into smaller sectors, valuations are below historical PER, and even if a dramatic sales boost from capex appears only in 2027, stock prices can improve earlier.
Power equipment needs 120-day breakout
He now says power equipment is worth watching, with Hyosung Heavy Industries and HD Hyundai Electric rebounding. But he notes LS Electric and the sector remain below the 120-day average; reclaiming that line would make the group more elastic. US-China transformer dynamics may limit or support the trade.
