Global investors have flooded into Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix stock trading this year, driving these two memory stocks up by 147% and 245%, respectively, but the soaring stock prices have caused unexpected trouble for some funds.
As the stock prices of these two companies repeatedly hit new highs, reaching the limit of 10% single-stock holding restrictions for some funds, forcing these funds to sell off these stocks.
Zurich-based GAM Investment Management and Singapore's Jupiter Asset Management are reportedly among the companies triggering such sell-offs, having had to adjust their portfolios reluctantly.
This forced sell-off undoubtedly highlights the current congestion in the memory market and could further increase volatility.
As of Thursday, global investors have net sold $63.6 billion worth of Korean stocks, the largest monthly sell-off since data became available in 1999.
Among them, Samsung and SK Hynix have seen a combined net outflow of $58.6 billion this year. (Cailian Press)
