Park Hyun-sang — Deputy Head

Summary

Park Hyun-sang reviews a Korean market where Samsung Electronics' record earnings removed uncertainty but foreign investors sold Samsung on the event and bought SK hynix and other sectors. He sees defense and shipbuilding supported by earnings and US defense-budget narratives, while autos are cheap with better tariff-driven first-quarter expectations. He also flags KOSDAQ rebound potential, event-driven healthcare/biotech interest, TSMC earnings, and a range-bound KOSPI valuation backdrop.

  • Samsung Electronics reported record quarterly operating profit, resolving earnings uncertainty but experiencing foreign selling on the event.
  • Foreign flows rotated toward SK hynix and other sectors, with SK hynix also supported by potential ADR and Micron valuation comparisons.
  • Defense and shipbuilding were highlighted as positive sectors due to US defense-budget momentum and earnings-season expectations.
  • Hyundai Wia was discussed as a robot/logistics-automation re-rating, while autos were seen as cheap with better tariff-driven Q1 earnings.
  • TSMC earnings, KOSDAQ rebound potential, and JPMorgan Healthcare Conference-related biotech interest were flagged as near-term catalysts.
  • KOSPI was described as not expensive but more likely to consolidate, favoring buying dips and trimming rallies.
Ideas
Park Hyun-sang Deputy Head 0:43
Samsung earnings uncertainty resolved; limited downside
Samsung Electronics reported record quarterly operating profit of about KRW 20tn, resolving the key earnings uncertainty; major brokers and foreign houses responded positively. Although foreigners sold Samsung on the event and retail investors bought the dip, the strong earnings limit downside and retail buyers are likely to be rewarded when foreign and institutional flows return.
005930.KS HIGH
Park Hyun-sang Deputy Head 1:12
SK hynix earnings, ADR catalyst support upside
SK hynix has continued earnings expectations and foreign brokerage target upgrades; foreigners bought it while selling Samsung Electronics, and its late-January earnings can extend semiconductor momentum. A potential US ADR listing could highlight its discount versus Micron and attract foreign buying, while earnings estimates continue to rise.
000660.KS HIGH
Park Hyun-sang Deputy Head 9:01
US defense budget boosts Korean defense momentum
Trump's proposed increase of the 2027 US defense budget to $1.5tn gives defense stocks a fresh narrative; global defense is strong, Korean defense had already started improving, and earnings-season expectations add momentum, so Korean defense stocks can extend gains.
Korean defense stocks HIGH
Park Hyun-sang Deputy Head 9:55
Shipbuilding follows defense strength into earnings
Shipbuilding tends to benefit when defense is strong, and it is entering earnings season with decent expectations; shipbuilding ETFs and stocks have already started to rise, so the sector should remain supported.
Korean Shipbuilding Stocks MED

Hyundai Wia robot re-rating, but avoid chasing
Hyundai Wia is being revalued as a logistics-automation and robot-related company; it surged in after-hours trading after Hyundai Motor jumped because it had lagged. However, chasing is dangerous; buy only partially and keep room to add on pullbacks.
011210.KS MED
Park Hyun-sang Deputy Head 14:31
Cheap autos, better tariff-driven Q1 earnings
Autos are cheap and the chart is unlikely to break unless there are three hard down days; first-quarter earnings expectations are improving because tariffs fall from last year's 25% level to 15%, making year-over-year comparisons better. Watch two to three days, but a breakdown is seen as unlikely.
005380.KS Korean autos MED
Park Hyun-sang Deputy Head 19:34
TSMC earnings likely okay on expansion
TSMC's upcoming earnings should be okay because the company has announced capacity expansion/capex. However, because semiconductors are a crowded and expensive asset, its post-earnings market reaction and foreign flows need to be checked.
TSM MED
Park Hyun-sang Deputy Head 20:04
JPM healthcare event lifts Korean biotech
The JPMorgan Healthcare Conference is creating event-driven interest in Korean healthcare and biotech; some bio stocks are near bottom, the sector is strengthening and has not broken trend, but flows are short-term and spectacular, so individual winners need to be selected and continuation checked.
Korean healthcare/biotech sector MED
Park Hyun-sang Deputy Head 21:55
KOSPI range-bound; buy dips, trim rallies
KOSPI valuation is not stretched as semiconductor-led EPS rises, but the market is more likely to consolidate than surge. If it sharply drops, buy; if it rallies, trim, using a range-trading approach.
KRX:KOSPI MED
Park Hyun-sang Deputy Head 22:32
Oversold KOSDAQ may catch up
KOSDAQ has been overly sold by foreign program selling; if market color changes after option expiry and JPMorgan Healthcare Conference expectations boost sentiment, KOSDAQ could catch up and the unusually large number of declining stocks could reverse.
KRX:KOSDAQ MED
Park Hyun-sang Deputy Head 24:48
Laggard holding companies may see law catalyst
Korean holding companies have not moved yet, and the commercial law revision discussion expected around late January could become a catalyst, making them a laggard to watch for the next momentum phase.
Korean holding companies LOW
