How I’m Looking at $SKHY’s U.S. Listing

Market Structure View on $SKHY The key point is simple: A 7x oversubscribed book proves that the primary market wants allocation. It does not prove that the secondary market has to keep bidding the stock higher. The real issue here is that the primary market and the secondary market are trading two completely different things. SK Hynix’s U.S. listing is huge. The basic facts are clear: 17.79 million new common shares. 177.9 million ADSs. 10 ADSs represent 1 common share. Demand reportedly exceeded available supply by more than 7x. Large U.S. institutional orders started around $200 million. Baillie Gifford, Coatue, Situational Awareness and other major funds have shown interest. That demand is real. But primary demand and secondary price action are not the same thing. The primary market is

2026 First-Half Review: Pain and Reward, and Why Holding Matters Most

If I had to summarize my first half of 2026 in one sentence, I would say: It was a first half filled with both pain and reward. The reward was that I saw the opportunity in the memory sector early. The pain was that I got the direction right, but I did not truly hold on. The best decision I made in the first half of the year was starting to build a position in the memory sector in January, mainly through Micron. My thinking at the time was simple: As HBM prices continued to rise, DRAM and NAND were also entering a new pricing upcycle. The memory industry was likely moving back into a strong cycle. Historically, memory has always been a classic cyclical industry. Every few years, it enters a powerful upcycle. But this time is different. This cycle is not only driven by a normal supply-deman

The GPU Trade Is Not Over, But the Next AI Capex Wave May Move Into Networks

AI infrastructure is entering a new phase. In the first phase, the market was trading one question: Who has the most GPUs? Then the focus shifted to data centers. Who can secure enough power, land, cooling, servers, and deployment capacity? But now, the question is changing again. As AI Mega Clusters move from hundreds of thousands of GPUs toward millions of GPUs, the bottleneck is no longer just GPUs. It is no longer just power. The next bottleneck is whether multiple data centers can be connected into one unified AI training cluster. That is Scale-Across. SemiAnalysis recently published a deep dive on this topic. Their core view is clear: future AI clusters cannot rely forever on the expansion of a single campus. More cloud providers will have to connect multiple data centers, multiple c

Samsung’s Blowout Profit, SK Hynix’s Listing, and the Memory Selloff: This Is Not the End — It Is a Shift

Samsung’s profit surged 19x, yet memory stocks sold off hard. So what exactly is the market pricing in? Samsung delivered an almost flawless Q2 earnings guidance. Revenue is expected to reach 171 trillion KRW, while operating profit is expected to hit 89.4 trillion KRW, up nearly 19x year over year. This is not a normal cyclical recovery. This is a profit explosion driven by AI servers, HBM demand, and DRAM price increases. In theory, this kind of guidance should have ignited the entire memory sector. But the market’s reaction was the opposite: A sharp selloff. And that is exactly what makes today important. Memory stocks did not fall because Samsung’s earnings were weak. They did not fall because HBM demand suddenly disappeared. They fell because the market is shifting from pricing in ear

Next Week Could Be a Defining Week for Memory Stocks

Next week, I believe the memory sector deserves serious attention. Several major catalysts are lining up at the same time: SK Hynix’s Nasdaq listing, continued DRAM price hikes, changes in long-term contract pricing, and a more supportive macro backdrop. Individually, each of these factors matters. Together, they could mark the beginning of a major re-rating for the memory sector. First, SK Hynix. SK Hynix is expected to list on Nasdaq on July 10, with an estimated issuance size of around $29 billion, making it one of the largest ADR offerings in history. The structure is expected to be 1 ADR representing 0.1 common share. This is not just about adding another tradable ticker. It means global capital will finally have a more direct way to price SK Hynix. For a leading memory player, this c

SK hynix's July 10 Listing Could Be a Catalyst, Not the Bearish Event Many Investors Expect

As SK hynix approaches its July 10 listing event, investors are increasingly asking the same question: Will additional shares entering the market create selling pressure across the memory sector? That concern is understandable. But I believe the market may be focusing on the wrong variable. The long-term direction of memory stocks has never been determined by a listing event alone. It has always been driven by the industry's earnings cycle. Over the past two years, artificial intelligence has fundamentally reshaped the memory market. HBM demand continues to outpace supply. DDR5 adoption is accelerating. Enterprise SSD demand continues to grow alongside AI infrastructure spending. Those structural trends remain far more important than a single capital markets event. Many investors instincti

Storage Just Dropped 10%. I Think It's a Shakeout, Not the End of the AI Trade.

The past two trading sessions have been painful for semiconductor investors. $闪迪(SNDK)$ $美光科技(MU)$ The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index has fallen more than 10% in just two days, with every single constituent ending in the red. Yet the broader market tells a completely different story. The S&P 500 has remained relatively stable, the Dow has pushed to fresh all-time highs, and the equal-weight S&P 500 has also continued making new highs. Same market. Two completely different stories. That tells us something important: this isn't broad market liquidation. It's sector rotation. Capital is moving into defensive sectors such as healthcare, consumer staples, and utilities. More than 350 stocks in the S&am

Micron Just Reported the Best Quarter in Memory History — Then Got Sued for Price-Fixing

Micron Just Reported the Best Quarter in Memory History — Then Got Sued for Price-Fixing The memory sector just got hit by three bullets at once. And they all landed on the same day. $美光科技(MU)$ Strike One: Antitrust Lawsuit Samsung, SK Hynix, and $MU have been sued for allegedly coordinating to restrict DRAM supply and artificially inflate prices. The timing is almost poetic. Micron just delivered a historic earnings print — revenue up 346% year-over-year, gross margins at 84.6%, orders locked in through 2028. The ink wasn't even dry before the antitrust filing dropped. The market isn't panicking over the fine. It's panicking over something much bigger: if regulators start dismantling the pricing power narrative, the entire investment thesis changes

Meta Just Triggered a Memory Selloff — But Is the Market Confusing Long-Term Risk With Near-Term Reality?

One headline. That's all it took to reprice the entire AI infrastructure complex. $美光科技(MU)$ $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ Reports that Meta is preparing to commercialize its excess AI compute capacity through a cloud offering immediately reshaped sentiment across the sector. To be clear: Meta isn't selling GPUs. It's monetizing compute services built on infrastructure it already owns — a capital efficiency play, not a capacity retreat. The market didn't see it that way. AI cloud providers including CoreWeave sold off sharply. Memory stocks followed. The logic was simple and fast: if hyperscalers can squeeze more utilization out of existing GPU clusters, maybe they don't need to keep expanding. And if GPU pr

Why Does Bernstein Think $SNDK Could Be Worth $4,400? The Price Target Isn't the Most Interesting Part.

Bernstein just released what I think is one of the most important research notes on the memory industry this year. $纳指100ETF(QQQ)$ $闪迪(SNDK)$ Most headlines focused on one number: A Bull Case valuation of $4,400 for SanDisk. But in my opinion, that's not the real takeaway. The report spends far more time explaining why this memory cycle may be fundamentally different from every cycle before it. A year ago, when SanDisk was trading a fraction of today's valuation and most investors still viewed NAND as a deeply cyclical commodity business, Bernstein was one of the very first firms on Wall Street to publish a $1,000 price target. Back then, many thought it was far too aggressive. Looking back, they were simp

$NOK: Nokia Isn't Chasing AI. It's Building the Infrastructure Behind It.

Over the past two weeks, Nokia has released a series of AI-related announcements. $诺基亚(NOK)$ Individually, none of them looked particularly game-changing. Taken together, however, they reveal a much bigger strategy. Nokia is quietly positioning itself as an AI infrastructure company. The latest announcement is its joint Silicon Valley Innovation Center with Freedom Holding. At first glance, it sounds like another corporate innovation lab. But the focus isn't consumer AI or chatbots. The center will develop AI data center blueprints, cloud infrastructure, advanced networking, 5G, edge computing, and AI-ready digital architecture. In other words, it's focused on building the foundation that future AI systems will run on. This becomes much more intere

Memory Stocks Sold Off Today. But Did the AI Thesis Actually Change?

Today's selloff across the memory sector wasn't driven by weakening AI demand. $闪迪(SNDK)$ $美光科技(MU)$ It was triggered by a newly filed U.S. class-action lawsuit against Samsung, SK hynix, and Micron, alleging that the three companies coordinated DRAM production cuts, shifted capacity toward higher-margin HBM, and artificially tightened DRAM supply, resulting in a sharp increase in memory prices. The lawsuit certainly introduces potential legal and regulatory risks. But it doesn't change the industry's supply-demand fundamentals. As of today: HBM demand remains supply-constrained. NVIDIA's Blackwell and next-generation Rubin roadmap remains intact. Hyperscaler AI capex has not been revised lower. Memory vend

Headline: OpenAI's Billion-Dollar Deal + Cathie Wood Buying In — Yet CBRS Got Cut in Half. Who Do You Trust?

🧵 There's a new "stock guru" all over Twitter today hyping up $CBRS (Cerebras). It IPO'd barely over a month ago, billed as "the next NVDA" — and the stock has already been cut in half from its highs. So should we buy the dip? $Cerebras Systems(CBRS)$ 1️⃣ How strong are the fundamentals, really? Cerebras builds wafer-scale AI chips (WSE) — massive single-wafer chips that fuse compute and huge amounts of memory directly onto one die. Its specialty is high-speed, low-latency inference, which is the core architectural difference from NVDA's GPU approach. In January 2026, OpenAI signed a multi-year deal worth over $10 billion with Cerebras, committing to deploy 750MW of Cerebras systems, rolling out in phases through 2028. The latest big update: OpenA

Koreans have launched a 5-year plan, and our investment patience should be at least up to 5 years. Looking back at MU, INTC and AMD, each of them has experienced a long period of silence before the real outbreak. Whose rise didn't bear a hard time first? If a person is either a life or an investment, I can use the vision of 5 years or even 10 years to lay out, and choose the right direction again. It's hard for me to imagine that he won't succeed. Stock speculation is never a game to make quick money, let alone a shortcut to life. There is almost nothing in the world that can be done quickly. Patience is the most scarce ability, and it is also the confidence that we dare to bet on the future.
