Morgan Stanley — Increasing SK Hynix exposure

Industrial and Energy Sector Strategy
Krafton (259960) — New game launch drives momentum
Krafton's new title, 'Subnautica 2', is a major hit, surpassing 4 million cumulative units sold just 5 days after its early access launch.
Krafton previously reported record-breaking quarterly results for Q1 2026, with revenue of 1.3714 trillion won and an operating profit of 561.6 billion won (up 57% and 23% YoY, respectively). The strong start for Subnautica 2 is likely to further bolster momentum for Q2 earnings.

Overall Investment Direction
Here is the current market outlook:
- Continued focus on AI/Semiconductors: Morgan Stanley's inclusion of SK Hynix in its EM portfolio suggests global capital is concentrating on AI infrastructure supply chains.
- Positive short-term momentum for gaming: The global success of Krafton's 'Subnautica 2' could act as a catalyst to improve sentiment toward the domestic gaming sector.
- Selective approach to Bio: It's best to focus on stocks that have already confirmed profitability, like L&C Bio.
- Monitor Samsung Electronics strike risks: The looming general strike is a short-term uncertainty; watch for production disruptions or negotiation updates.
Overall, coverage reports for large-cap stocks are limited today. We are awaiting data for new analyst reports on industrial and energy stocks including Hyundai Steel, Hanwha Ocean, SungEel HiTech, Lotte Chemical, and Unid. Updates will follow as reports are released.
