- Why it matters
- This helps you learn about confirmation signals for reentry, such as the KOSPI breaking above 7,100~7,200, and the portfolio management principle of reducing positions when uneasy.
AI summary
Net buying by foreign investors in the 3 trillion won range and buying by institutions markedly improved supply and demand in the Korean market in just one day. However, because this was a single day's data from a day when the US market was closed, it should not be taken as confirmation of a reversal into an upward trend; further developments this week need to be checked. The KOSPI edged above its 120 day moving average, and the Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix charts also improved. However, the KOSPI remained trapped between moving averages, and technical signals alone did not prompt an immediate change in the existing view. A decline in the won/dollar exchange rate and a stronger yen could be interpreted positively for the market, but the possibility of yen carry trades being unwound and their further effects need to be monitored. The speaker outlined a portfolio management principle: reducing positions when uneasy is not a mistake, and when there is no conviction that the market will keep rising, one can hold cash and establish positions again after confirmation signals appear, such as the KOSPI breaking above 7,100~7,200.
