🟢 Samsung Electronics is trading 3.4% up today as investors bargain-hunt after a sharp AI chip selloff

Samsung Electronics is trading 3.4% up at KRW 252,250 as investors engage in bargain-hunting following last week’s sharp selloff in the AI chip sector and concerns over heavy capital expenditure for memory fabs.

• The rebound follows record preliminary Q2 2026 profit guidance of KRW 89.4 trillion, which initially sparked a sector-wide reassessment of AI-driven demand.
• Investors are weighing the sustainability of high AI memory spending against the company's strong financial performance and recent valuation pullbacks.
