Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix rebound as dip buyers lift shares by up to 1.4% and 5.8%
Samsung's Q2 preliminary results triggered a sharp reassessment of AI-linked semiconductor expectations, spilling into U.S. peers and driving a broad SOX-led selloff. The subsequent rebound in Samsung and SK Hynix reflects dip-buying supported by near-term tight memory supply and resilient hyperscaler demand, though analysts flag moderating pricing momentum later in 2026. Near-term volatility in global semis and AI supply-chain equities is likely to stay elevated.

Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix rebounded after an early selloff as investors bought the dip, supported by expectations of tight memory-chip supply and optimism over AI demand. Samsung rose as much as 1.4% after dropping up to 4.4%, while SK Hynix climbed as much as 5.8% after sliding up to 5% at the open. The previous day’s weakness followed Samsung’s preliminary second-quarter earnings, which projected a 19-fold jump in operating profit but fell short of heightened expectations for AI memory chips.
