Summary

Lee Kwon-hee, CEO of Wizwave, discusses the Samsung Electronics DX union's treasury share demand and its negative shareholder reaction, then turns to the Unitree IPO as a catalyst for Korean robot stocks. He highlights low-PBR securities firms as attractive ahead of potential regulatory changes and warns that KOSDAQ's rally is heavily driven by leverage ETF flows, advising against chasing.

  • Samsung Electronics DX union requests 1,000 treasury shares per employee, frustrating existing shareholders.
  • Unitree, the world's #1 robot producer by volume, is listing; its valuation could lift Korean robot names like Robotis, SPG, and Rainbow Robotics.
  • Korean robot companies are positioned as fast followers, so a leading peer's valuation acts as a positive anchor.
  • Securities stocks with very low PBR (Kiwoom, Korea Investment, Daol, Kyobo, etc.) may attract attention if anti-suppression regulations emerge.
  • KOSDAQ's recent surge is amplified by money flowing into leveraged ETFs (single-stock → KOSDAQ 150), creating a risky, event-driven trading environment.
  • Post-earnings season, the market is dominated by supply-demand dynamics and macro sentiment, making fundamentals less relevant.
  • The host notes intraday strength in Cosmecca Korea, PharmaResearch, and SPG, but no deeper thesis is offered for those moves.

Korean robot stocks to follow Unitree valuation
Unitree, the world's largest robot producer by production volume, is listing and will provide a valuation benchmark. Korean robotics companies like Robotis, SPG, and Rainbow Robotics are fast followers, not leaders, so they can benefit from that valuation uplift, similar to how Korean battery stocks followed Chinese peers. Government robot industry support adds further positive sentiment.

Low PBR securities stocks to benefit from regulation
Low PBR securities stocks are attractive. Kiwoom (1.1x), Korea Investment Holdings (0.9x), and smaller names like SK Securities (0.8x), Kyobo Securities (0.5x), Daol Investment (0.39x), Bookook Securities (0.6x), and Shin Young Securities (0.59x) are trading at very cheap valuations. A potential stock price suppression prevention law would focus attention on low PBR firms, and underlying earnings are strong.

KOSDAQ rally fueled by leverage, risky
KOSDAQ's recent rally is heavily driven by flows into leveraged ETFs (single-stock leverage ETFs feeding KOSDAQ 150 leverage ETFs). When upward momentum fades, selling tends to emerge. Investors should not chase after sharp gains; instead, it is better to monitor for reversals and trade accordingly.
