HSBC upgraded Korean equities from neutral to overweight. Margin loan balances dropped approximately $21 billion, and single-stock leveraged ETF assets fell to roughly one-quarter of previous levels.
HSBC strategists stated: "Overall, we are comfortable with the level of visibility and the momentum in earnings." According to FactSet consensus, Korean earnings are projected to increase over 300% in 2026, with approximately 30% growth expected in 2027. Samsung Electronics plans to return 50% of free cash flow, potentially yielding approximately 7% dividend yield in 2026 at current prices.
Main risks: foreign fund flows pose potential headwinds, as Samsung and SK Hynix represent roughly 10% of global emerging markets portfolios. Active funds may face concentration limits preventing additional exposure additions.
