Summary

Park Se-ik reviews major news: US legislation may allow Korean shipbuilders to construct Navy support ships; SpaceX IPO is excessively overvalued; sovereign AI debate; nuclear power revival, especially SMR, with Doosan Enerbility as key player; Fed turns hawkish and warns of rate hikes; and memory chip supply crisis forces Apple price hikes, benefiting Samsung and SK hynix.

  • US Congress may permit non-combat naval ship construction in allied countries, positive for Korean shipyards.
  • SpaceX IPO valuation at PSR 94x seen as too high, historical IPOs underperform.
  • Sovereign AI highlighted but youth job crisis undermines policy effectiveness.
  • Nuclear power sector revival driven by AI data center demand; Doosan Enerbility is a core foundry for SMR.
  • Federal Reserve dot plot turns sharply hawkish, signaling potential rate hikes, markets react with stronger dollar, lower equities.
  • Global memory semiconductor shortage due to HBM priority, DRAM prices surge, forcing Apple to raise iPhone prices; Samsung and SK hynix benefit.

Korean shipbuilders to benefit from US law.
The US Congress is advancing legislation to allow construction of Navy support ships in allied countries, and Korea's shipbuilding industry, with its strong track record and existing cooperation under the $350 billion US investment plan, is uniquely positioned to benefit; there is practically no alternative to Korean shipyards.

SpaceX is overvalued, avoid IPO.
SpaceX IPO is extremely overvalued at PSR over 100x; historically, high-expectation IPOs tend to underperform in the long term after an initial pop, as the large gap between optimistic expectations and reality closes.

Doosan Enerbility gains from nuclear revival.
Memory shortage due to AI/HBM demand crowding out conventional DRAM production is causing a supply crisis; DRAM prices have quadrupled, Apple forced to raise iPhone prices, and the shortage is expected to last until 2027, benefiting Samsung Electronics and SK hynix as the leading manufacturers.
