Dr. Niwet Hemavachiravarakorn, a value investor, says that a large number of individual investors in the Korean stock market, possibly in the millions, are facing disaster from investing in two AI stocks: Samsung and SK Hynix, which produce memory chips that are key components for global AI. These investors are not long-term investors but speculators using margin and other mechanisms, allowing them to buy stocks many times over and lose many times over when the stocks fall. After both stocks rose crazily until their combined value exceeded half of the entire Korean stock market, since early July 2026, the stocks have been falling continuously, triggering circuit breakers several times. During July 28 to 30, the Korean stock market index fell a total of 17.2%, causing many investors to be forced to sell stocks and lose almost everything, before the index rebounded 17.9% on July 31, the biggest single-day gain in the history of the Korean stock market. Dr. Niwet warns that the way to avoid this is not to speculate and not to be greedy in a situation where the market is extremely booming.
