# NVIDIA reaches a storage chip agreement, but SK Hynix and Samsung's stock prices are significantly under pressure

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang has just signed a new cooperation agreement with SK Hynix, but this did not boost the stock price of the South Korean memory chip manufacturer.

In the South Korean stock market, SK Hynix's stock opened down 10.3%, while fellow memory chip supplier Samsung Electronics opened down 10.9%. The Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) fell as much as 8.8% during the day, but all three subsequently narrowed their losses.

So far this year, SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics have been the main engines behind the strong rise of the KOSPI, which has accumulated a 94% increase since 2026. However, last Friday, as artificial intelligence (AI) trading came under pressure, the KOSPI fell 6.2%, and in early trading on Monday, the index dropped another 6.1%.

Stephen Innes, managing partner at SPI Asset Management, stated in a Substack article: "One day's market does not constitute a trend, but when the hottest AI playground suddenly turns into a fire drill, traders should take notice." He also wrote: "From Monday's price action, South Korean investors woke up to find their market at the epicenter of global AI trade unwinding, which is clearly not a pleasant situation."

Nevertheless, Innes cautioned that it is still early in the trading day for the South Korean stock market. When discussing AI trading, he wrote: "The real conclusions will have to wait until London traders open and we see the latest situation in the New York market."
