BlockBeats News, July 6, Goldman Sachs' latest research report stated that the rally in the Korean stock market in the second half of the year is expected to spread from AI memory leaders such as Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix to more industries including energy, raw materials, and industrial manufacturing. Overseas funds are gradually deploying across the AI supply chain and other independent investment opportunities.

In response to market concerns about a bubble in Korean stocks, Goldman Sachs believes that the current increase in margin balances is mainly due to the growth in net asset value of leveraged ETFs, rather than new borrowing by investors. Korean household assets are still dominated by real estate, cash, and overseas stocks, and there is still room for incremental capital inflows into the local stock market.

Goldman Sachs expects that Korean companies' overall net profit will grow by approximately 320% year-on-year in 2026, and will maintain a growth rate of about 35% in 2027. It maintains a 12-month target of 12,000 points for the Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI), representing a potential upside of more than 20% from current levels, but expects market volatility to increase going forward.
