Summary

Jung Tae-geun discusses Korea's MSCI developed market inclusion prospects, bullish for June. He highlights shipbuilding, nuclear, power equipment, robotics, and battery materials as favored sectors, with specific emphasis on HD Hyundai Heavy and Hanwha Ocean. The National Pension rebalancing risk is a watchpoint.

  • Korea is nearing MSCI Developed Markets inclusion, likely in June, which should boost foreign inflows.
  • The National Pension Service's rebalancing deferral ending could introduce selling pressure, but is not yet confirmed.
  • Shipbuilding sector has strong catalysts from US LNG terminals and naval orders, potentially doubling earnings.
  • HD Hyundai Heavy Industries is the preferred shipbuilding name, while Hanwha Ocean may benefit later.
  • Nuclear power and power equipment sectors are ranked second and fourth, with policy support.
  • Robotics sector is fifth, with long-term potential but unclear catalysts.
  • Secondary battery materials are favored over equipment due to the EV-to-ESS capex shift.
  • Overall, Jung Tae-geun maintains a bullish outlook for June with few identifiable risks.
Trade Ideas
Jeong Tae-geun Director, Mire Economic Research Institute 4:56
Korea MSCI inclusion bullish for market
Korea is likely to be included in the MSCI Developed Markets Index in June, which will enable larger inflows from global funds, supporting further market upside and potentially reducing the Korea discount.

Wait for rotation, then buy Hanwha Ocean
Hanwha Ocean has strong catalysts (e.g., Canadian submarine bid) but current market rotation into semiconductors suppresses its price; once funds rotate back, it should see significant upside.
Jeong Tae-geun Director, Mire Economic Research Institute 20:03
Korean shipbuilding sector earnings set to double
US LNG export terminal projects and naval ship orders (e.g., frigates worth ~7,600 billion won each) will generate over 100 LNG carrier orders likely going to Korean yards, plus high-value military contracts, doubling earnings guidance for Korean shipbuilders.
Jeong Tae-geun Director, Mire Economic Research Institute 20:08
HD Hyundai Heavy Industries primary beneficiary
HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, as the leading Korean shipbuilder, will benefit disproportionately from the upcoming LNG carrier and naval ship order wave, driving significant upside in earnings and share price.
Jeong Tae-geun Director, Mire Economic Research Institute 32:32
Nuclear power sector bullish
Nuclear power is the second-most favored sector, expected to benefit from policy support and US-Korea cooperation in energy infrastructure.
Jeong Tae-geun Director, Mire Economic Research Institute 32:36
Robotics sector watch
Robotics sector is fifth, with long-term growth potential driven by automation trends, but near-term catalysts are less clear.
Jeong Tae-geun Director, Mire Economic Research Institute 32:44
Power equipment sector positive
Power equipment sector is ranked fourth, likely to gain from increased grid investment and electricity demand.
