Investors are questioning how long to hold South Korea’s leading chip stocks after sharp gains in Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix this year. The two companies, the largest and second-largest by market value on the Kospi, have reportedly risen 129% and 191%, respectively. Analysts have presented target prices as high as 500,000 won for Samsung Electronics and 3.1 million won for SK Hynix. The main backdrop is expanding AI investment. Market analysts view AI spending as a matter of corporate “survival” and believe the semiconductor boom could continue next year. However, they also warned that upward momentum may weaken after the rapid rally. Source: mk.co.kr
