Next week, the South Korean stock market is expected to be affected by the US midterm elections and the release of a number of core economic indicators. The brokerage industry suggests adopting a batch buying strategy below 6,000 points in the Korea Composite Index, saying that the Korean stock market is currently undervalued. Na Jeong-hwan, a researcher at NH Investment & Securities, said, “The KOSPI index began to rebound from the early 5,000 point position. During the rebound phase, we should focus on individual stocks that have risen in volume; targets with continued capital inflows are likely to lead this round of rebound and become the leading sector.” According to brokerage analysis, KOSPI's expected price-earnings ratio is only 4 times, and it has already entered an extremely undervalued range. However, the agency suggests that the market wants to continue to rise, provided that the market has confidence in profit growth in 2027 and 2028, while foreign investors continue to make net purchases. Lee Jae-won, a Korean researcher at Yuanda Securities, said, “Below 6,000 points of KOSPI, we can rely on shareholder return and net market ratio valuations to gradually increase positions at appropriate prices; at the same time, the layout materials, components, equipment, and energy storage system sectors that continue to hold the semiconductor main line can obtain excess profits.”
