SK hynix: Buy This Meltdown Before It Disappears (Rating Upgrade)

JR Research Investing Group Leader Follow Summary SK hynix is upgraded to Buy after suffering a dramatic 60% drop, followed by a stunning 30% rebound, signaling a durable bottoming and renewed advancing phase. Phenomenal Q2 results with revenue up 250% and operating income up 550% underscore SK Hynix's HBM leadership amid ongoing AI infrastructure buildout. Long-term supply agreements and robust AI-driven DRAM/HBM demand support near-term growth, though moderation is expected post-2028 as CapEx and revenue growth normalize. SK hynix trades at a discounted 4.6x forward earnings (lower than MU), demonstrating that the market is not dumb about the normalization risks. Despite that, I see this bottom as a resounding one, highlighting the opportunity to double down before SKHY leaves without you. Looking for a helping hand in the market?
