Summary
On a massive down day for Korean markets, Shinhan Investment PB team lead Hwang Yoo-hyun analyzes the crash, warns that SK Square’s record-volume bearish candle signals caution, and pinpoints a potential short-term buy zone for SK Hynix around 240,000 won, while advising overall conservatism and waiting for confirmation before re-entering.
- KOSPI and KOSDAQ suffered sharp drops with no clear single catalyst, triggering panic selling.
- Hwang Yoo-hyun attributes the crash to overheated concentration in SK Hynix and SK Square, leverage ETF amplification, and multiple minor negatives.
- He warns that SK Square’s massive-volume bearish engulfing candle is a technical sell signal, citing LG Innotek’s similar pattern that led to a deep correction.
- He identifies SK Hynix in the 235,000–240,000 won range as a potential short-term buying opportunity based on the historical 25% correction level.
- He urges a conservative approach, favoring confirmation after a rebound rather than aggressively buying the dip.
- Micron earnings and US PCE data this week are key catalysts but may already be largely priced in.
- Hosts share their own stressful positions bought during the decline, highlighting fragile retail sentiment.
Ideas
Avoid SK Square after massive volume crash
SK Square today printed an extremely large-volume bearish engulfing candle with record trading value. Historically, similar patterns in Korean stocks—such as LG Innotek’s earlier episode—have led to deep corrections (e.g., ~40% drop) followed by only partial rebounds. This technical damage is a clear warning, and chasing the stock now is high-risk.
Buy SK Hynix dip near 240k won
SK Hynix has already corrected about 10-12% from its recent high. If it falls further into the 235,000–240,000 won range—roughly a 25% decline akin to the June correction—that level represents a high-probability short-term buying opportunity for a bounce. However, a break below 210,000 won (a 30% correction) would signal a fundamental shift and require extreme caution.
