Summary

Lee Kwon-hee discusses market dynamics following US-Korea ceasefire reports, including KOSPI valuation, foreign inflows, and specific stock opportunities. He highlights Hyundai Motor's cheap valuation, Hyundai AutoEver's robotics transition, Simmtech's socket demand from AI, and PharmaResearch's cosmetics export tailwind. He also touches on US yields, KOSDAQ cheapness, and glass substrates but is not actively recommending those.

  • US-Korea ceasefire hopes boosted US and Korean markets, especially semiconductors and large caps.
  • KOSPI PER is 7x but ex-Samsung and SK hynix it is 13x, reflecting concentration risk.
  • Foreign investors are buying Samsung Electronics, SK hynix, and Hyundai Motor, with Hyundai seen as cheap.
  • Lee Kwon-hee is bullish on Hyundai AutoEver due to its transformation into a robotics SI company.
  • Simmtech is expected to benefit from rising CPU socket demand as AI computing shifts CPU/GPU ratios.
  • Korean cosmetics exports to the US are at record highs, benefiting companies like PharmaResearch.
  • US 10-year yield around 4.45% is seen as a headwind for biotech and KOSDAQ; lower yields would help.
  • Glass substrate stocks (SKC, Phioptic) rallied on Intel/Apple news but Lee is not chasing them.
  • Overall, the market is concentrated in large caps, with foreign inflows driving big tech stocks.
  • Lee advises caution on chasing glass substrates and suggests waiting for confirmation on large caps.

Korean cosmetics export boom beneficiary
Korean cosmetics exports to the US are surging, with Korea now the top import source. PharmaResearch, as a player in beauty/health, is expected to benefit from this export boom, and its chart is forming a base after consolidation.

Robot transition, earnings improving Q2
Hyundai AutoEver is transitioning from a system integrator to a robotics SI company within the Hyundai Motor Group. Although near-term earnings are weak, improvement is expected from Q2, supported by a target price of 590,000 KRW from a brokerage report.

Hyundai Motor cheap, foreign buying catalyst
Hyundai Motor is attractively valued at around 10x earnings compared to Tesla's 100x, and foreign investors have started buying. If the stock stabilizes above 560,000 KRW, further upside is likely, potentially reaching 20x PE (around 1M KRW based on earnings).

Socket demand rises with CPU importance
As CPU importance in AI computing increases, the demand for sockets (package substrates) will rise because CPU-to-GPU ratios are shifting towards more CPUs. Simmtech is a key manufacturer of these sockets, benefiting from this structural demand growth.
