A proprietary Thesis OS screen combining 1,137 Naver ETF constituent scans and local investor-flow data to identify Korean semiconductor second-line equipment, substrate, inspection and AI storage candidates that could outperform Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix over the next two months.
A review of the first half of June: U.S. jobs, CPI, PPI, Jensen Huang's Korea visit, the SpaceX IPO, foreign selling in Korean memory stocks, and the June 12 rebound. The conclusion is not easing confirmation, but a stress test for rates, oil, and crowded AI positioning.
A strategy note combining Korean semiconductor market-cap proxies and full ETF exposure data. The key is to separate absolute ETF ownership, market-cap-adjusted ETF sensitivity, and under-owned ETF gap candidates such as TCK, Daeduck Electronics, Korea Circuit and Doosan Tesna.
A sober read on what the US directive against Anthropic Fable 5 and Mythos 5 changes for Korea's sovereign AI thesis and Upstage, and what it does not yet change.
A framework for reading Korea's $350 billion U.S. strategic investment law through the nuclear value chain. The note separates nuclear beta in Doosan Enerbility, Hyundai E&C and KEPCO E&C from potential follow-on alpha in KEPCO KPS, Woori Technology, Woojin and power-equipment suppliers.
This is not a central-bank QE tape. It is a regulation-adjusted liquidity regime. We map U.S. dealer balance-sheet easing, Korea's WGBI / Value-up / capital-rule easing, and Japan's cash-to-market shift into one frame, and put Korean financials, U.S. market infrastructure and Japanese governance plays as the first-order winners.
A strategy note combining KR Theme ETF Rebalance Flow v1, KOSPI big-figure breakout/pullback patterns, and the KOSPI200 expiry semiconductor squeeze monitor to frame how investors can respond when ETF and program flow drive Korean equities.
On June 12, 2026, foreigners bought KRW 2.72tn of KOSPI shares after 24 straight sessions of selling. But that is only 3.6% of the prior KRW 75.57tn selloff, and the buying was concentrated in Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix.
The first KR Theme ETF Rebalance Flow v1 run flagged Korea theme ETF cap-redistribution pressure. As of June 12, 2026, semiconductor equipment/material names such as Leeno, EO Technics, Soulbrain, DB HiTek, Hanmi Semiconductor, ISC and Wonik IPS screened as redistribution-buy candidates, while SK Hynix, Samsung Electro-Mechanics and LS ELECTRIC appeared on cap-trim watch.
The fuel powering the AI supercycle is changing. It starts with the explosion in token demand created by AI agents, runs through Big Tech's corporate bonds and internal cash as the first funding source, and then opens an entirely new supply channel as mega-IPOs like SpaceX and Anthropic tap the public markets. In a cycle where both demand and money keep extending, the most powerful yet still cheapest asset left is memory and storage. Nomura's price targets — KRW 590,000 for Samsung Electronics and KRW 5,000,000 for SK Hynix — are the signal.
