National Pension Takes Profits on U.S. Memory Chip Stocks, Samsung and SK Hynix in Focus

South Korea’s National Pension Service reportedly sold U.S. memory semiconductor-related stocks, including Micron, on May 12 local time to realize gains, drawing market attention to its investment direction for major Korean chipmakers. The sale is being viewed as a sign that its holding strategy for U.S. memory chip stocks may be shifting. Investors are now watching whether the fund will take a similar profit-taking approach toward Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. However, the original report did not confirm any actual selling of the two Korean stocks, only noting growing interest in a possible change in investment stance. Source: mk.co.kr
