Seoul Economic Daily

Episode Description: After a seven-day rout, Korean strategists advise holding chip stocks and keeping about half of portfolios in safe assets. The KOSPI rose 99.96 points, or 1.76%, to 5,768.01 on October 19, its second straight gain after seven consecutive losses. Five market strategists urged investors not to sell chip stocks hastily, with Kiwoom Securities’ Lee Jong-hyung recommending equal weights in risk and safe assets and Shinhan Asset Management’s Chae Kyung-sub suggesting 50% stocks, 25% bonds, 20% cash and 5% gold. They flagged late-October big tech earnings, interest rates and foreign flows as key risks, as investor deposits fell to 94.4 trillion won (about $71 billion) as of October 16 from 121.6 trillion won (about $91 billion) at the end of June. We also look at Japan’s GPIF, which raised its domestic stock weighting to 25% from 12% in 2014 and posted a record 22.67% return in 2023.
