Samsung Electronics Tumbles 6.92% Despite Record Q2 Earnings as KOSPI Falls 4.91% on July 7

According to Morgan Stanley, Samsung Electronics' record-breaking second-quarter results failed to support its stock price on July 7, as KOSPI declined 4.91% to 7,656.31. Samsung Electronics dropped 6.92%, while SK Hynix fell 6.06%. Morgan Stanley advised clients to reduce semiconductor holdings and increase hyperscaler exposure, stating that the semiconductor-led rally has ended and market leadership is broadening. The bank's chief investment officer Mike Wilson noted that while memory semiconductor earnings forecasts have been sharply raised, stocks will face adjustment pressure. Single-stock leveraged ETFs tracking Samsung and SK Hynix fell 12-13%, amplifying market volatility. South Korea's financial regulator warned against concentrated portfolio allocation and excessive leveraged investing, citing heightened financial risks.
