WTI spike risk with $120 scenario.
WTI crude broke above $100 and rose about 7% in a day to around $102, with the upward slope steepening. He warns that when a commodity spikes like this, the ceiling is unknown, and a Goldman Sachs report mentioned $120 oil. This oil spike is a major macro risk for equities and worth monitoring.
Raise 20-30% cash before event volatility.
The speaker says the overall market view remains positive, but short-term risk management is needed because S&P 500 and Dow have broken recent support, Nasdaq is near last week's low, oil has spiked above $100, and US yields are near 5%. Next week's FOMC and BOJ events, plus Friday volatility, create event risk. He concludes investors should 'avoid first': if stock exposure is too high, raise 20-30% cash, even selling some on Monday if late, then redeploy after the event.
Buy Korean stocks after uncertainty clears.
After the FOMC and BOJ uncertainty is resolved, he thinks stocks should be bought; if the market falls on noise, that is a buying opportunity. He expects the best window by next Thursday or Friday or before Chuseok, because either a noise-driven dip or uncertainty resolution should be used to add. The overall market view stays positive, limited rate hikes are not like 2022, AI capex continues, and the market is holding up.
Buy Samsung and SK hynix dips.
Korean semiconductor exports are at record levels and prices are not bad; although DRAM has cooled slightly and September export growth may not beat August because of Chuseok holidays, the trend is not breaking. Semiconductors remain the core of the market, and AI capex forecasts from Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and JPMorgan keep rising. Therefore, if next week's market shock pulls Samsung Electronics and SK hynix down, semiconductors should be the first area to buy on the dip.
Murata discontinuation benefits Korean MLCC makers.
Murata has decided to discontinue some general-purpose MLCC products and move toward higher-end products. In 2016, similar TDK and Murata discontinuations led to an MLCC supercycle and Samsung Electro-Mechanics shares surged from around KRW 30,000-40,000 to KRW 160,000-170,000 by 2018. MLCCs are essential components across electronics, and shortage conditions are strengthening, so Korean MLCC makers such as Samsung Electro-Mechanics, Samwha Capacitor, and Amotech should benefit.
Murata discontinuation benefits Korean MLCC makers.
Samwha Capacitor is less focused on high-end MLCCs than Samsung Electro-Mechanics, so it can capture more spillover or reflex benefit from Murata's low-end discontinuation. The speaker notes Samwha recently crashed from around KRW 200,000 to KRW 60,000 and then rebounded about 150% from the low, showing high elasticity. It is currently around KRW 140,000, with the prior high at KRW 170,000-180,000, and he thinks it can retest that level if sentiment improves; therefore pullbacks are a buying opportunity.
