Mirae Asset Securities
High-return investors trading through Mirae Asset Securities net bought Samsung Electronics (005930.KS), Hyundai Motor (005380.KS), and SK hynix (000660.KS) the most on Tuesday morning.
According to Mirae Asset Securities on November 11, Samsung Electronics was the most-purchased stock as of 11 a.m. among “stock masters” — the top 1% of Mirae Asset Securities’ trading customers by investment returns over the past month.
Samsung Electronics was trading at 287,000 won as of 11 a.m., up 6.89% from the previous session. The stock has extended its rally on foreign buying and improving expectations for the semiconductor cycle.
Brokerages are also raising their earnings forecasts for Samsung Electronics one after another. Kiwoom Securities said in a report Tuesday that it had raised its target price for Samsung Electronics to 330,000 won from 260,000 won and maintained its “Top Pick” rating within the sector.
“Samsung Electronics’ operating profit could reach 100 trillion won in 2026,” said Park Yu-ak, analyst at Kiwoom Securities. “Price increases for commodity DRAM and NAND are exceeding market expectations, and narrower losses at the foundry and System LSI divisions will also contribute to earnings improvement.”
Hyundai Motor ranked second in net buying. At the same time, shares were up 2.28% at 627,000 won. “Annual humanoid sales will reach 1.5 million units by 2035, with market share of around 10%,” said Kim Gwi-jun, analyst at KB Securities. “The combination of the Georgia electric vehicle plant in the U.S. and Boston Dynamics’ humanoid technology will be the key growth driver.” He added, “The combined market capitalization of Hyundai Motor, Kia, and Hyundai Mobis is only about one-fourth that of Tesla, making valuations attractive.”
Third-ranked SK hynix was trading at 1.888 million won, up 11.98% from the previous session. The stock briefly topped the 1.9 million won mark in early trading. Analysts attribute the move to AI memory-related investment demand concentrating on SK hynix ahead of earnings announcements from major global partners.
However, some analysts warned that labor costs and performance bonuses could emerge as new variables amid the robust memory market. “If competitors pay high-level performance bonuses, demands for additional compensation could also grow internally at SK hynix,” said Jung Woo-sung, analyst at LS Securities. “During periods of sharp memory price increases, a reassessment of the labor value of manufacturing and technical personnel is inevitable.”
On the other hand, the top net-sold stocks on the day were SK Telecom (017670.KS), Hana Micron (067310.KQ), and Daejoo Electronic Materials (078600.KQ). On the previous trading day, November 8, the top net-bought stocks were Samsung Electronics, Hyundai Motor, and Alteogen (196170.KQ). L&F (066970.KQ), Samyang Foods (003230.KS), and LX Semicon (108320.KQ) were among the top net-sold names.
