Analysis: Korea's semiconductor industry net profit next year or 1019 trillion won

According to Kim Byung-Yeon, head of the Research Department of the NH Investment & Security Policy Department, at a press panel and voucher analysts ' meeting in the Seoul Office of the Korea Exchange on 20 July, the South Korean stock market is now reflecting both semiconductor concerns, geopolitical concerns, and supply- and demand-side disturbances. NH Investment & Securities sets the Korea Integrated Equity Index at 5,800 to 6250 points, and considers that the index is more likely to rebound to 7000 points in the middle of the sharp price adjustment, and then stabilizes on the basis of the U.S. plan for cloud revenue growth and capital expenditure. Kim Byung-yeon stated that attention should be paid to the absolute level of exports of semiconductors rather than to the rate of increase in exports. The agency estimates that net profits from the semiconductor sector will increase from 217 trillion won last year to 75.9 trillion won this year, 10.19 trillion won next year and 34 per cent next year。
