South Korea has the best performing stock market in the world for the second year running — and it's also in the middle of one of the worst bear markets on earth. The KOSPI is down around 27% from its June peak, more than 1.2 million retail accounts have been hit with margin calls, and hundreds of thousands of Korean investors have been wiped out entirely. But this isn't a story about meme stocks or worthless companies. Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix are enormously profitable businesses at the center of the global AI boom, and the traders buying them were right about the trend. In this video I look at how a national stock index became a two-stock bet on artificial intelligence, how single-stock leveraged ETFs turned ordinary volatility into a mechanical feedback loop, why Korea's retail "ants" took on so much leverage in the first place, and what Victor Haghani's famous biased-coin experiment tells us about how you can be completely right about a market and still lose everything.Patrick's Books:Statistics For The Trading Floor: https://amzn.to/3eerLA0Derivatives For The Trading Floor: https://amzn.to/3cjsyPFCorporate Finance: https://amzn.to/3fn3rvC Ways To Support The Channel:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinanceBuy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/patrickboyle

The current earnings season is seeing some bright spots, such as the Swiss luxury retailer Richemont and the US asset manager BlackRock. US producer prices came in below expectations, continuing to ease inflation concerns. In Asia, a rotation continues from this year's winners, Japan and South Korea, towards laggards such as Hong Kong, while South Korean regulators announced plans to address volatility linked to leveraged ETFs tied to SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics. The US dollar stabilised after recent weakness and sterling rose to a one-year high. Meanwhile, Norbert Rücker, Head of Economics and Next Generation Research, discusses why oil continues to flow through the Strait of Hormuz despite renewed regional tensions, why European natural gas prices remain elevated, and why gold has been largely unmoved by softer inflation data.(00:00) - Introduction: Helen Freer, Product & Investment Content (00:27) - Markets wrap-up: Mike Rauber, Product & Investment Content (07:00) - Commodities update: Norbert Rücker, Head of Economics & Next Generation Research (13:18) - Closing remarks: Helen Freer, Product & Investment Content Would you like to support this show?

Every quarter recently, semiconductor stocks keep churning out incredible numbers. And every quarter, it seems as those companies somehow “miss expectations”. The most recent example was when Samsung Electronics reported a 1,900% increase in profits, the stock dropped so much it halted trading on the Korean composite index. Lou, Matt, and Tyler dig into the expectations game Wall Street is playing and the underlying trends still supporting it. Plus, defense companies are making moves at the NATO summit and investor questions. Have a question? Email us; podcasts@fool.com Want to take the next step in your investing journey?

Track 1219389 Monetization ID TFGEPGEI0LHEIJAI Kia ora. Welcome to Monday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand. I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from interest.co.nz. Today we lead with news an OPEC decision overnight may bring lower fuel prices much sooner. But then, this will depend on the volume of Hormuz crossings. But first, this coming week locally will be dominated by the RBNZ's OCR review on Wednesday. Economists are divided on whether an inflation-fighting hike will come, and financial markets are pricing one in at 76%. The split voting at the May 27 review, where the external members all wanted a hike, but the majority internal members didn't, is just as likely to be repeated. ASB is saying that locally, easing oil prices have strengthened our economic outlook and reduced the risk of a prolonged inflation shock. Lower fuel costs and stronger than expected economic momentum have put the recovery back on a firmer footing. In Australia, the data out this week will be mainly about the Melbourne Institute's monthly inflation gauge, and about job ad changes. In the US, their data releases will focus on service sector activity and existing home sales as they, like Europe, start to battle excessively hot conditions. In Japan, the focus will be on defending the yen. They will also release June machine tool order data. China will release June CPI and PPI data this week. Over the weekend, China released their unofficial services PMI and it came in quite positive for June, similar to May. Growth rates for activity and new business remain strong. They recorded the strongest rise in employment since July 2024 and the fastest input cost inflation in over two years. Service sector firms there are optimistic about the immediate future. The overall result was better than the official China services PMI. In Japan, their services PMI returned to growth in June, but cost pressures intensified, but here business confidence remained subdued. Which is in contrast to their quite positive factory PMI. In South Korea we should probably note a very bumpy run recently by their stock market. It is dominated by major technology and semiconductor companies like Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, so it is like the Nasdaq on steroids. This gives it unusual volatility, and that volatility has been on display in the past two weeks. This market hit a new record high on June 22 but has fallen -11% since. On Friday, it rose +5.8% however but even that still left it down -3% for the week. Over the past year, this equity market has risen a stunning +165% with most of it in 2026 and most of it tech-related. In Vietnam, they posted a high Q2-2026 growth rate of +8.4%, building on their +7.8% Q1-2026 rate. (How can they report so quickly?) But this latest result will disappoint them because they have set a 2026 target of +10% and that now looks unlikely to be achieved, derailed somewhat by the Middle East conflict, also by missing their infrastructure build-out targets. Inflation eased to 4.7% in June from May's 5.6%, moving closer to the government's 4.5% inflation target this year. The World Bank has now reclassified Vietnam as an upper-middle-income economy, effective July 1. The FAO global Food Price Index retreated for a second consecutive month in June, led down by falling cereals prices as harvests stay high, despite concerns in the US and Australia. Dairy prices eased slightly too, but meat prices stayed elevated. However it is vegetable oil prices that are keeping this index from falling faster. In the US, the latest update of the AtlantaFed's GDPNow tracking reveals a sudden turn from high optimism about economic expansion, to a dour outlook. It has been rare that this model has come in lower than 'consensus' forecasts. The UST 10yr yield is now just on 4.49%, unchanged from this time Saturday but a +12 bps rise from this time last week. The price of gold has risen to US$4174/oz, unchanged from Saturday, up +US$100 from a week ago. Silver is now under US$62.50/oz, unchanged from Saturday too, up +US$3.50/oz for the week. Oil prices are little-changed but slightly firmer from Saturday at just under US$69/bbl in the US, while the international Brent price is still at US$72/bbl. Hormuz transits picked up Friday but then on renewed uncertainties fell back again over the weekend with just 10 crude or product tankers exiting over the past 19 hours (1 dark with transponders off) but 15 entering for new loads (1 dark). Large tankers which are exiting are now choosing to do so in Oman-controlled lanes. And we should probably note attacks on a ships in the Red Sea near Yemen over the weekend, adding another layer of uncertainty. OPEC met over the weekend, and raised output by +188,000 barrels/day. They have Middle East members who need maximum revenues to recover from the conflict. So we may end up awash in oil and sharply lower prices. The Kiwi dollar is unchanged from this time Saturday at just over 57.1 USc, up +70 bps from a week ago. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 82.3 AUc. Against the euro we are still at just on 49.9 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on 60.9 which is unchanged from this time Saturday, up +60 bps for the week. The bitcoin price starts today at US$62,563 and up +0.7% from this time Saturday, but up almost +4% from this time last week. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been low at just under +/- 0.8%. You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz. Kia ora. I'm David Chaston and we'll do this again tomorrow.

Ist die KI-Rally vorbei – oder beginnt gerade die nächste Phase am Aktienmarkt? Willkommen zu „Das Briefing“ – DIE wöchentliche Börsensendung für deutsche Privatanleger, jeden Samstag. In dieser Ausgabe analysiere ich eine extrem volatile Börsenwoche zwischen KI-Euphorie, Zins-Hoffnung, Gewinnmitnahmen und neuen Chancen bei Aktien, Gold, Silber und Bitcoin. KI-Aktien wie SanDisk, SK Hynix, Micron, Samsung Electronics und Western Digital schwanken massiv und notieren deutlich unter ihren Hochs. Nach der gigantischen Rally fragen sich viele Anleger: War es das jetzt mit dem KI-Boom – oder ist das nur eine Korrektur innerhalb eines viel größeren Trends? Ich erkläre, warum wir meiner Meinung nach nicht das Ende der Rally sehen, sondern eine neue Marktphase. Es steigen inzwischen wieder deutlich mehr Aktien als zuvor. Die Rally wird breiter. Gleichzeitig zeichnet sich ein Favoritenwechsel ab: Während viele heiße KI-Speicheraktien konsolidieren, holen die Magnificent 7 wieder auf – besonders Meta sorgt mit seinen KI-Plänen für neue Fantasie. Meta will KI-Rechenleistung verkaufen und damit aus den gigantischen KI-Investitionen ein neues Geschäftsmodell machen. Das ist spannend für Meta – aber gefährlich für Anbieter wie Nebius und CoreWeave. Denn wenn Big Tech selbst zum KI-Infrastruktur-Anbieter wird, verändern sich die Spielregeln für den gesamten Markt. Auch Rheinmetall und Palantir haben sich nach ihren Rückschlägen wieder erholt. Vonovia profitiert von neuer Hoffnung, weil Enteignungspläne politisch ausgebremst werden sollen. Ganz anders sieht es bei Nike aus: Die Aktie enttäuscht weiter massiv – und der erhoffte Turnaround lässt auf sich warten. Außerdem blicken wir auf Bitcoin, Gold und Silber. Alle drei konnten sich zuletzt erholen. Der Grund: Die Märkte haben weniger Angst vor steigenden Zinsen. Selbst Kevin Warsh sprach zuletzt davon, dass die Inflationsgefahr abgenommen habe. Gleichzeitig zeigen schwächere Daten vom US-Arbeitsmarkt, dass der Druck auf die Fed sinken könnte. Bedeutet das: weniger Zinserhöhungen, niedrigere Renditen und wieder bessere Bedingungen für Aktien und Edelmetalle? Und wir analysieren das neue Reformpaket von Friedrich Merz und Schwarz-Rot. Steuerentlastungen, Bürokratieabbau, Arbeitsmarkt, Wohnungsmarkt und Wettbewerbsfähigkeit: Was bringt das Paket wirklich für Deutschland, die Wirtschaft und Anleger? Ist das der Neustart – oder nur ein kleiner Schritt in einer viel größeren Krise? Diese Themen erwarten dich im heutigen Briefing:
In der heutigen Folge sprechen die Finanzjournalisten Nando Sommerfeldt und Holger Zschäpitz über Bayers Bündelung, das Tesla-Rätsel und 2 sehr volatile E-Auto-Aktien.

This week, the team discusses the Lee administration's $1 trillion “Three Mega Projects” blueprint, which aims to expand South Korea's semiconductor, AI data center, advanced packaging and robotics sectors while building a new industrial base in the Honam region. The conversation then turns to domestic politics, as the ruling Democratic Party secures 11 of the National Assembly's 18 standing committees after a People Power Party boycott, giving the ruling bloc control over key legislative choke points as it pushes President Lee Jae Myung's agenda. The team also looks at June's 3.2% inflation reading, the KOSPI sell-off and investor concerns over whether Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix can sustain major AI-related investments in both South Korea and the U.S. Later, they discuss Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha's visit to Seoul, including the fate of North Korean prisoners of war captured while fighting for Russia and discrepancies between Seoul and Kyiv's readouts on security cooperation. The episode also covers Han Seong-sook's appointment as prime minister, President Lee's criticism of the Korea Football Association after South Korea's World Cup exit and the risks of government intervention in football governance. About the podcast: The Korea Pro Podcast is a weekly conversation hosted by Korea Risk Group Executive Director Jeongmin Kim, Managing Editor John Lee and correspondent Joon Ha Park, delivering deep, clear analysis of South Korean politics, diplomacy, security, society and technology for professionals who need more than headlines.

US job growth slowed significantly in June, giving support to our economists' view that the US Federal Reserve will not raise interest rates again this year. This pushed Treasury yields and the USD lower, while supporting gold and most equities. US technology and semiconductor stocks fell sharply after reports that Anthropic is looking into developing its own AI chip together with Samsung Electronics. European marketsrose on Brent oil moving towards USD 70 per barrel, reduced rate-hike expectations by the Fed and new German growth measures. Asian equities outperformed, driven by gains in semiconductor stocks and encouraging economic data from China and Japan.

On this week's episode, John and Jeongmin discuss the latest uncertainty surrounding U.S.-Iran talks and what it means for South Korea. They also examine President Lee Jae Myung's recent diplomacy in Europe, including his interactions with U.S. President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the G7 Summit and the possibility that golf could become an unlikely channel for building personal rapport between the two leaders. The conversation then turns to South Korean domestic politics, as Lee's approval ratings decline and support for the conservative People Power Party shows signs of recovery. Finally, the discussion turns to what Micron's stronger-than-expected earnings could signal for South Korean chipmakers Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, as AI demand continues to shape the KOSPI and drive market volatility.

Deze aflevering duiken we in de bijzondere wereld van de grondstoffenmarkt. En de wilde bewegingen die handelaren maken. ING ziet de vraag naar complexe derivatenconstructies exploderen, nu bedrijven worstelen met margestortingen en extreme prijsschommelingen. We proberen in Jip & Janneke taal te kijken hoe ING precies scoort. Wat het betekent voor het aandeel. En: klan ING nóg meer geld verdienen met deze onrust? Ook hebben we het over SK Hynix. De maker van geheugenchips was even Samsung voorbij als meest waardevolle beursbedrijf van Zuid-Korea! Best knap, als je je bedenkt dat het bedrijf eerder nog bijna failliet ging. Verder staan we uitgebreid stil bij het overlijden van Alan Greenspan. De voormalig Fed-voorzitter die maar liefst 100 jaar is geworden. Je hoort waarom hij zo bejubeld werd, maar ook waardoor hij (aan het einde van zijn termijn) werd beschuldigd van de grootste financiële crisis ooit.
