Summary

On July 1, KOSPI fell 2% as Samsung Electronics and SK hynix declined, while KOSDAQ rose 1.4% on broad gains. Lee Kwon-hee interpreted the memory sell-off as a consolidation offering buying opportunities and highlighted power grid, shipbuilding, defense, and nuclear sectors as strong. He also flagged breakouts in Isu Petasys and space plays HVM/Spear. Jang Woojin urged caution on KOSDAQ, noting weak volume and technical resistance.

  • KOSPI down 2% led by Samsung Electronics (-5.8%) and SK hynix (-3.4%); KOSDAQ up 1.4% with 1,193 advancers.
  • Lee Kwon-hee views semiconductor memory dip as temporary consolidation and a long-term buy-on-weakness opportunity.
  • Power equipment stocks surge on AI data center, renewable energy, and Honam cluster infrastructure investments.
  • Shipbuilding, defense, and nuclear sectors rebound on strong orders and earnings expectations.
  • Isu Petasys breaks above 120,000 won resistance with volume and institutional accumulation.
  • HVM and Spear benefit directly as SpaceX launch cadence increases, offering entry near 50,000 won.
  • Jang Woojin warns that KOSDAQ's rally lacks volume and faces strong resistance at the 20-day moving average, advising against chasing.
  • Rotation from large-cap semiconductors into lagging small/mid-caps may continue, but sustainability remains in question.
Ideas
Lee Kwon-hee CEO, Economist 4:28
Power grid stocks driven by AI infrastructure
South Korean power equipment and grid stocks are exhibiting strong relative strength and should be held or bought because massive investments are flowing into renewable energy, AI data centers, and semiconductor infrastructure (e.g., the Honam cluster). Gaon Cable's breakout serves as a leading indicator confirming the trend. Companies like LS Electric, HD Hyundai Electric, and Hyosung Heavy Industries benefit from both domestic and global capex, and their earnings outlook is solid, making the case that there is no need to sell.
Lee Kwon-hee CEO, Economist 4:52
Shipbuilding, defense, nuclear rebound on earnings
Shipbuilding, defense, and nuclear sectors rebounded meaningfully after recent corrections. Defense stocks were oversold following an accident-related sell-off, yet order momentum remains strong (e.g., LIG Nex1's European JV, Hyundai Rotem's Iraq pipeline, Korea Aerospace's potential orders). Shipbuilding and nuclear also benefit from solid backlogs and earnings improvement. These sectors are not likely to fade quickly and the earnings-driven upside makes them worthy of expectation.
KOSDAQ rebound lacks volume, avoid chasing
KOSDAQ's recent bounce lacks confirming volume and is encountering strong resistance at the 20-day moving average (~960). The downtrend has not been broken and the rebound does not yet qualify as a genuine recovery. Investors should avoid chasing the rally and instead remain observant and cautious about initiating new positions.
Lee Kwon-hee CEO, Economist 24:24
Buy Samsung, SK hynix on dips
Samsung Electronics and SK hynix are undergoing a short-term consolidation that could last up to a month, but the DRAM export price dip is a temporary blip and overall semiconductor export data remains strong. Valuations are still cheap, with Samsung's long-term target potentially reaching 85,000–90,000 won. The correction offers a buying opportunity; current levels around 31,000 won for Samsung are worth accumulating on dips.
Lee Kwon-hee CEO, Economist 49:01
Isu Petasys breakout with cheap valuation
Isu Petasys broke above the critical 120,000 won resistance with heavy volume and institutional buying. The valuation has compressed from 50x to 27x, making it more attractive. MLB demand continues to expand with new capacity, and the breakout suggests further upside. Even those without positions can consider entering now.
Lee Kwon-hee CEO, Economist 53:12
HVM and Spear direct SpaceX beneficiaries
HVM and Spear are two rare direct suppliers to SpaceX. As SpaceX increases its launch cadence, their order volumes will rise. HVM near 50,000 won is an attractive level to consider buying. The space theme benefits directly from US space momentum and these stocks offer a pure-play exposure.
