SK Hynix Market Cap Exceeds Samsung for First Time in 26 Years, Korean Broker Calls for 50% More Upside

marsbitPublished on 2026-06-23Last updated on 2026-06-23

Abstract

SK Hynix's market capitalization surpassed Samsung Electronics for the first time in 26 years on June 22, reaching 208.1 trillion won. The shift reflects a market trend where companies directly benefiting from AI infrastructure, like SK Hynix, are receiving higher valuation premiums than diversified giants. The surge is driven by AI-driven demand for High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), where SK Hynix holds a dominant 70-80% market share. Its Q1 2026 revenue exceeded 50 trillion won for the first time, with an operating profit margin of 72%. Hanwha Investment & Securities significantly raised its price target for SK Hynix to 430,000 won, the highest among Korean brokerages. The key rationale is that Long-Term Supply Agreements (LTAs) and robust HBM demand have fundamentally reduced the company's historical profit volatility. Several other brokers have also raised targets, arguing the valuation framework for memory semiconductors is being rewritten, moving away from a cyclical model. Despite the bullish outlook, the stock experienced a pullback of over 5% in regular trading on June 23 after briefly surpassing 3 million won pre-market, amid broader tech sector weakness. Some analysts caution that the市值 overtaking Samsung, whose profit scale and growth forecasts remain higher, could signal short-term overheating. However, high-return investors viewed the dip as a buying opportunity.

TechFlow Summary: On June 22, SK Hynix's intraday market capitalization reached 208 trillion won, surpassing Samsung Electronics for the first time in 26 years. Hanwha Investment & Securities directly raised its target price from 1.63 million won to 4.3 million won, the highest among Korean brokerages. The core logic is that long-term supply agreements (LTA) and HBM demand have fundamentally changed the profitability volatility of memory chips. The stock has risen over 340% year-to-date, briefly surpassing 3 million won in pre-market trading but retreated over 5% in regular trading.

On June 22, SK Hynix's stock price hit a historic high of 2.95 million won, pushing its market cap to 208.1 trillion won, exceeding Samsung Electronics' 207.3 trillion won. This is the first time since November 2000 that Samsung has lost its top spot in the Korean stock market.

According to the Korea Herald, by 3:15 p.m., SK Hynix closed at 2.91 million won, up 5.32%, while Samsung Electronics fell slightly by 0.28% to 353,000 won. SK Hynix has surged 341.9% year-to-date, compared to Samsung's 197.7% gain. Both companies are in the semiconductor sector, but the market is voting with its feet: in the AI era, companies directly benefiting from infrastructure buildout are commanding a higher valuation premium than diversified giants.

Hanwha Investment & Securities Sets 4.3 Million Won Target Price, More Than Doubling Previous Estimate

On June 22, Hanwha Investment & Securities analyst Park Jun-young raised SK Hynix's target price from 1.63 million won to 4.3 million won, an increase of nearly 1.6 times, currently the highest target price among Korean brokerages.

Park's core argument is: SK Hynix is no longer a company with severe profit volatility; it is transforming into an enterprise capable of consistently generating high-level profits. He noted that Korean memory chip makers have long suffered from valuation discounts, but with the expansion of long-term supply agreements (LTA) and soaring HBM demand, earnings visibility has fundamentally improved.

According to the Seoul Economic Daily, Hanwha used a price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) of 10x to calculate the target price, the lowest level among global semiconductor companies. SK Hynix's current 12-month forward P/E is about 6.6x, lower than that of fellow memory maker Micron. Hanwha predicts that even if the memory market weakens, SK Hynix's operating margin will remain above at least 30%, compared to figures that have fallen below 10% or even turned negative in past downturns.

Hanwha also listed ADR listing as a catalyst. Park Jun-young stated that an ADR listing within the year would give SK Hynix the opportunity to be valued directly against peers like Micron in the US market, saying "SK Hynix is currently the optimal investment target in terms of both fundamentals and momentum."

Multiple Brokerages Collectively Raise Target Prices, Memory Industry Valuation Framework Being Rewritten

Hanwha is not alone. In the past two months, Korean and international brokerages have seen a round of intensive upward revisions to SK Hynix's target price.

SK Securities raised its target price to 3 million won on May 7, using a 10x P/E framework, which was the highest among Korean brokerages at the time. KB Securities raised it to 3 million won on May 15, predicting a 2026 operating margin of 78.1%, stating that memory semiconductors are becoming "scarce strategic assets that determine the overall performance of AI systems." Citi raised its target price from 1.7 million won to 3.1 million won on May 12, citing stronger-than-expected HBM price growth in the second half. JPMorgan raised its target to 3 million won on May 18, simultaneously raising its EPS estimates for 2026-2028 by 9% to 20%.

Nomura Securities released a report on May 15, stating bluntly, "This time is really different," believing the valuation logic of the memory industry is undergoing a paradigm-level shift, and risk premiums should converge towards those of TSMC, rather than continuing to apply the traditional cyclical stock framework.

Behind these revisions is a common logical support: LTA has changed the pricing mechanism of the memory industry. According to Hanwha's analysis, current long-term supply agreements include price decline protection clauses and legal safeguards for contract performance, allowing manufacturers to maintain certain profit margins even during market downturns. This is fundamentally different from the past model where DRAM spot prices fluctuated wildly and manufacturers passively endured cycles.

Q1 Performance: Revenue First Surpasses 50 Trillion Won, Operating Margin at 72%

The target price hikes are supported by hard data. SK Hynix reported Q1 FY2026 revenue of 52.58 trillion won, a 198% year-on-year increase, breaking the 50 trillion won mark for the first time. Operating profit was 37.61 trillion won, a 405% increase. Operating margin reached 72%, surpassing Nvidia's 65% and setting a new record in the semiconductor manufacturing industry.

HBM is the core driver. SK Hynix currently holds about 70% to 80% of the global HBM market share and is a key supplier for Nvidia's AI accelerators. According to a Goldman Sachs report in April, the 2026 global DRAM supply-demand gap forecast has widened from 3.3% to 4.9%, the most severe in 15 years. The top three memory manufacturers have basically sold out their capacity for this year, and fab construction cycles of four to five years mean there will be virtually no new capacity added within the year.

UBS, when raising SK Hynix's earnings forecast in April, noted that AI-driven HBM demand continues to cannibalize DDR capacity, coupled with the server replacement cycle and simultaneous explosion in storage SSD demand, meaning the global DRAM supply-demand gap will persist until Q4 2027, calling it a "storage super cycle not seen in nearly three decades."

Pre-Market Surpasses 3 Million Won, But Falls Over 5% in Regular Trading

In pre-market trading on June 23, SK Hynix briefly touched 3.002 million won on Nextrade's NXT platform, breaking the 3 million won barrier. However, the stock price retreated after the regular session opened, trading at 2.75 million won as of 11 a.m., down 5.79% from the previous close.

The immediate cause of the decline was the overall weakness in global large-cap tech stocks, despite the solid performance of the US memory sector overnight (Micron up 6.9%, SanDisk up 4.1%). The KOSPI has risen 7.53% this month, but the gains have been highly concentrated in Samsung and Hynix stocks. The KOSPI 200 index excluding these two actually fell 2.48% over the same period, indicating extreme market divergence.

According to the Korea Herald, some brokerages have issued warnings: with Samsung Electronics' projected profit scale and growth rate both higher than SK Hynix's, the market cap reversal could be a signal of short-term overheating.

However, data from Mirae Asset Securities tracking high-return investors (top 1% in returns over the past month) shows that SK Hynix was still the most net-bought stock as of the morning of the 23rd. These investors see the pullback as a buying opportunity.

a16z Partner: The Next Space War May First Target Commercial Satellites

In May 2026, Russian Cosmos satellites maneuvered to within 500 meters of the commercial ICEYE-X36 radar satellite supporting Ukraine, highlighting the growing military targeting of commercial space assets. As constellations like Starlink and ICEYE provide critical communication, reconnaissance, and imaging services in conflicts, they are increasingly viewed as legitimate military objectives. This incident exemplifies modern space warfare's grey zone—actions like close approaches, jamming, or cyberattacks that fall short of kinetic destruction but demonstrate coercion and capability. Space warfare is constrained by physics, orbital congestion, and the threat of debris from kinetic strikes. While the US holds advantages in launch frequency, reusable rockets (led by SpaceX), and large commercial constellations, these assets are now vulnerable. True resilience requires distributed, proliferated satellite architectures, rapid replenishment, and robust space domain awareness. The future of space conflict will likely involve non-kinetic tactics to degrade an adversary's space-based support while avoiding catastrophic debris generation. The key is maintaining functionality under threat and deterring attacks by ensuring their cost outweighs any potential gain.

Mid-Year Review of U.S. Crypto Policy: CLARITY Gains Momentum for a Comeback, Who Will Lead the Second Half?

Mid-Point Review of U.S. Crypto Policy: CLARITY Act Gains Momentum, Who Will Lead the Second Half? The U.S. crypto industry is hopeful for a breakthrough as the Senate advances the CLARITY Act, but securing the necessary 60 votes requires bipartisan compromise. With only about 40 legislative days left, the path is tight. The policy agenda is crowded. Alongside CLARITY, multiple crypto tax proposals spun off from the new PARITY Act seek attachment to larger bills. The Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act aims to codify developer protections, and key rules under GENUIS remain under negotiation. The CFTC operates with four vacant commissioner seats, creating uncertainty. A major unresolved battle is over which regulator—state authorities, the CFTC, or the SEC—will gain jurisdiction over prediction markets. The sector also faces the impending departure of two key advocates: SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce and Senator Cynthia Lummis. Industry leaders provided cautious perspectives. Sara K. Weed doubts CLARITY will pass this Congress, expecting agencies like the SEC to provide guidance instead. Sulolit "Raj" Mukherjee believes targeted crypto tax provisions have a real chance if attached to must-pass year-end legislation. Rashan Colbert highlights the CFTC's recent efforts to build a regulatory framework for the growing prediction markets sector, warning against an overly broad "gambling" classification that could stifle innovation. The second half of the policy year has begun. The window for action is narrow, but opportunities remain. Sustained bipartisan engagement is crucial for achieving substantive results.

Will the STRC Issue Price Determined by ChatGPT Lead to a Death Spiral?

A "death spiral" concerns surround the "STRC" preferred shares from MicroStrategy, a financial instrument designed by CEO Michael Saylor with significant AI consultation to trade near a $100 face value. Since its July 2025 launch alongside a ~40% Bitcoin (BTC) decline, STRC has traded at a discount, hitting a low of $82.53 and pushing its effective dividend yield above 12.9%. The debate centers on whether STRC's structure—which relies on MicroStrategy issuing more shares to fund Bitcoin purchases and dividends—is sustainable or a "centralized Ponzi scheme," as economist Peter Schiff claims. Skepticism grew after Saylor revealed the product's design involved extensive AI dialogue to create a legally viable, monthly-dividend, price-stable preferred share—a novel concept. MicroStrategy's recent sale of 32 BTC to cover dividends, coupled with a sharp slowdown in its weekly Bitcoin buys (from billions to ~$100 million in June), has intensified fears. The "at-the-market" equity issuance, a key funding mechanism, is paused while STRC trades below par. This raises the "death spiral" risk: a lower STRC price triggers automatic dividend rate hikes, increasing cash obligations and potentially forcing more share sales or Bitcoin divestments. Bullish analysts like Jesse Myers argue the sell-off stems from leveraged positions unwinding, not fundamental failure, noting the company can cover dividends for decades if BTC appreciates modestly. The shift to semi-monthly dividends and the high yield at discounted prices may attract new buyers. Major AI models (ChatGPT, Grok, Claude) suggest a return to $100 is possible but conditional on restored market confidence, sustainable dividend coverage without asset sales, and a Bitcoin price recovery. The critical test arrives as new dividend rules take effect June 30, likely raising rates again with STRC below $95. The central question remains: Can MicroStrategy fulfill its obligations without selling Bitcoin, or will the mechanism accelerate its own decline?

Why Did NVIDIA's Bond Issue Go Unnoticed While SpaceX's Caused a Plunge?

The article analyzes the contrasting market reactions to recent bond issuances by SpaceX and NVIDIA. While NVIDIA's $25 billion bond offering was met with strong demand and seen as securing long-term capital for its already profitable AI business, SpaceX's move to raise at least $20 billion in bonds (primarily to refinance bridge loans) triggered a sell-off in its stock (SPCX). The key difference lies in the stage of cash flow validation for their respective core narratives. For NVIDIA, the AI boom is generating substantial, visible revenue and profits, making debt a tool to amplify a proven growth curve. For SpaceX, despite a strong cash position post-IPO and a revenue-generating business in Starlink, its valuation is heavily tied to future, capital-intensive projects like Starship, global satellite networks, and potential AI infrastructure. The bond issuance acted as a trigger, shifting market focus from SpaceX's long-term vision to the pressing question of whether Starlink's profits can fund these ambitious, unproven ventures before they generate their own returns. Thus, the market penalizes not the act of borrowing itself, but the perceived gap between high capital expenditure and the speed of cash flow realization. SpaceX's valuation recovery hinges on demonstrating that Starlink's profitability can outpace the burn rate of its futuristic projects or that those projects (like Starship achieving reliable, low-cost reusability) can soon transition from costly visions to commercial realities.

Will the STRC Issue Price Determined by ChatGPT Really Fall into a Death Spiral?

"Strategy's" (STRC) preferred share, a financial instrument designed by CEO Michael Saylor in consultation with AI to trade steadily at $100, faces mounting pressure. Since its July 2025 launch alongside a ~40% Bitcoin price drop, STRC has traded at a steep discount, hitting a low of $82.53. This discount pushes its effective dividend yield above 12.9%. The core debate revolves around whether STRC's structure is sustainable or a "centralized Ponzi scheme," as economist Peter Schiff claims. The mechanism relies on issuing new shares ("at-the-market" offerings) to fund Bitcoin purchases and dividend payments. However, the deep discount has paused these ATM offerings, slowing Bitcoin accumulation and forcing a minor sale of 32 BTC to cover obligations. Proponents, like The Smarter Web Company's Jesse Myers, argue the sell-off is a leveraged unwinding, not a fundamental failure. They note Strategy has ample resources to cover dividends for years if Bitcoin appreciates modestly. The deep discount also makes STRC attractive for yield-seeking buyers, as dividends are calculated on the $100 face value. The key test is whether Strategy can maintain dividends without sustained Bitcoin sales. A critical watchpoint is June 30th, when STRC switches to semi-monthly dividends. An automatic rule will likely raise the dividend rate further because the price remains below $95$, potentially creating a "death spiral": lower prices trigger higher yields, increasing the cash burden and forcing more dilution or asset sales. The question of whether this AI-designed "flywheel" is a stable instrument or a flawed accelerator will be answered by its price action and Strategy's funding choices in the coming months.
