Summary

Director Lee Ju-yeon reviews the post-Jackson Hole US and Korean market selloff and concludes that much of the Korean semiconductor downside is already pre-reflected, with Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix likely remaining rangebound into October earnings. She expects Treasury yield spikes to be used as equity buying opportunities and highlights rotation trades in cosmetics, nuclear and power equipment and renewables, AI infrastructure, pharma and bio, secondary batteries, and selected Nvidia-linked equipment names. Next week's key catalysts include weak Monday open risk, Apple's new CEO, semiconductor and power grid events, and Korean export data.

  • US indices fell after Jackson Hole; Nasdaq led declines while large-cap defensive names held up.
  • Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix already dropped about 4% on Friday, limiting Monday's additional downside.
  • CXMT's 800% revenue growth is not seen as an immediate DRAM supply threat due to process-generation gaps.
  • Nvidia's margin guidance is dismissed as a negative signal for memory demand.
  • The speaker expects long-term Treasury yields to stabilize before the midterms and advises buying equity dips on rate spikes.
  • Rotation focus includes cosmetics, nuclear and power equipment and renewables, AI infrastructure, pharma and bio, and secondary batteries.
  • Event catalysts include Apple's new CEO, Semicon Taiwan, the ITF forum, Broadcom earnings, and T&D World Drive 2026.
Ideas
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 2:23
Korean semis downside limited Monday.
After Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix already fell about 4% on Friday and Micron/SK Hynix ADR held up relatively well overnight, Monday's additional downside for Korean semiconductor-heavy indices should be limited even if the market opens weak because much of the US semiconductor decline has already been pre-reflected.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 6:27
Buy equity dips on yield spikes.
Treasury yields may spike and pressure equities, but the Treasury is defending long-end rates through buybacks and TGA drawdowns, and the speaker expects long yields to stabilize into the midterm elections; any equity pullback caused by higher yields should be treated as a buying opportunity.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 12:42
CXMT threat to Korean DRAM exaggerated.
CXMT's 800% revenue growth and DRAM supply-glut fears are overblown because CXMT cannot meaningfully affect supply until late 2026 or 2027 and uses only a 3rd-generation process while Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix use a 5th-generation process, giving Korean makers better cost, efficiency, and more chips per wafer.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 21:41
KOSDAQ shows stronger sentiment than KOSPI.
KOSDAQ is showing a relatively stronger upward-sloping intraday profile than KOSPI, indicating that market sentiment outside the Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix large-cap complex remains alive and that rotation opportunities can persist.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 22:56
Cosmetics names likely stay strong.
Cosmetics and consumer-related names should be relatively strong on Monday's weak start as defensive and consumer plays. The speaker names Cosmecca Korea, Kolmar Korea, APR, Hankook Cosmetics Manufacturing, Dalba Global, and PharmaResearch as having intact uptrends and continuing to be worth watching.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 23:30
Buy nuclear, power, renewables dips.
Nuclear power, power equipment, and renewables tied to AI infrastructure should keep rotating and be used as buying opportunities if Monday's weak open creates a dip. Renewables such as wind and solar have not yet risen and could benefit if Democrats win the US midterm elections because renewable energy is their flagship policy.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 25:24
Focus on Nvidia-linked equipment names.
Among semiconductor equipment and MLCC rotation plays, the speaker wants to focus on Nvidia-linked names such as Simmtech, TLB, and Isu Petasys rather than the whole sector, implying compressed selection around direct AI hardware ties.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 26:13
Refiners improving but momentum limited.
Korean refining names S-Oil, GS, and SK Innovation have earnings improving into the first half of next year, but momentum is limited by geopolitical headline risk; they move inversely to market direction, and the speaker says they deserve continued attention rather than aggressive trades.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 26:44
Korean steel earnings improving.
Korean steel stocks were strong this week and earnings are improving, supporting continued strength in the sector.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 26:49
Foldable phone momentum into Apple event.
Optical communication and foldable phone themes are a viable momentum play into Apple's foldable phone reveal around September 9, but actual demand is still limited, so the speaker treats it as a schedule-driven momentum trade only.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 27:33
Watch AI infra, biotech, secondary batteries.
The speaker's next-week core focus remains AI infrastructure, pharmaceutical/bio, and secondary battery sectors, viewing them as the areas to keep watching for rotation-led opportunities even while the KOSPI index stays capped.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 27:33
Watch AI infra, biotech, secondary batteries.
For the next one to two months, the speaker says investors should hold semiconductors as a core position at a minimum weight while diversifying into other rotation sectors to build returns, rather than expecting index-level gains from Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix.
Lee Ju-hyeon Director, Xangle 29:14
Apple CEO may favor Korean memory suppliers.
Apple's new CEO John Ternus taking office on September 1 is an important catalyst because, unlike Tim Cook, he may more directly secure memory from Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix, or Micron instead of probing Chinese suppliers, which could shift memory procurement and support those suppliers.
