As of 12:31 PM on the 15th, SK Hynix is trading at 130,500 KRW, up 3.57% from the previous day. The trading volume is 3,601,519 shares, which is about 85.3% of the previous day's volume. SK Hynix is known as a global memory semiconductor manufacturing company.


On February 15, Kiwoom Securities researcher Park Yu-ak revised upward the earnings forecast for SK Hynix's NAND division. Despite NAND demand from smartphone and laptop customers exceeding expectations, NAND supply remains lower than anticipated due to delays in process transitions. Accordingly, the turnaround point for the NAND industry is expected to be brought forward to 2Q21. SK Hynix's consolidated operating profit is expected to surge from 1.2 trillion KRW in 1Q21 to 2.0 trillion KRW in 2Q21, with the possibility of exceeding the company's forecast in 2Q21. Park set SK Hynix's target price at 170,000 KRW.


Over the past five days, individual investors have net purchased 1,571,201 shares of SK Hynix, while foreigners and institutions have net sold 509,366 shares and 1,116,937 shares, respectively.
