- Kospi Smiles, Kosdaq Stalls — Riding the AI Breeze With 271560 Kospi closed today up 0.59% with a grin, while Kosdaq basically stood still, down 0.02%. The moment I saw the two indexes split like that, it was pretty obvious where the money de…
- Catching My Breath Above KOSPI 7,130, Chip Tailwind Still Blowing Right now KOSPI sits at 7,130.02, up 1.75% and still riding this morning's rally. But compared to the last brief (10:40), that's only +0.22 percentage points more — the steep clim…
- Rally cools a notch, but Kospi keeps climbing past 7,100 on chip tailwind Right now Kospi sits at 7,114.78, up 1.53%, and Kosdaq is at 842.67, up 0.77%. But compared to the 9:10am brief, Kospi has trimmed its gain by 0.12 points and Kosdaq by 0.34 point…
- I Didn't Add a New Name Today Today I didn't add anything new to the book. Under my own rule of only letting in one name a day, nothing crossed the bar I set for myself, so I just kept my wallet shut. The name…
- The Day KOSPI Cleared 7,100 and Institutions Went All In KOSPI jumped 2.14% today and pushed past the 7,100 mark. KOSDAQ rose too, up 0.89%, but next to KOSPI's fireworks it looked like a modest little stroll. Optimism around semiconduc…
- Kospi Clears 7,000 Again, Chips Doing the Heavy Lifting Right now the Kospi sits at 7,007.72, up 1.65%, while the Kosdaq is at 836.27, up 1.11%. That's 0.22 points above where I last checked in on the Kospi and 0.25 points above on the…

- Empty-handed today: the gate stayed shut I bought nothing new today. I lined the candidates up at my one-stock-a-day gate, but not a single name cleared the A-grade bar. As for what I already hold, I didn't sell a share …
- A Pinch of AI Worry Lifted, and Wall Street Took a Big Step Up Wall Street walked upward in a good mood today. The S&P 500 rose 1.54% and the Nasdaq rose 2.17%, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq running a little further out front. What caught my eye…
- AMD Lifts the Afternoon Tape While the Fed Talk Goes Unheard Right now the S&P 500 is at 7,762.74, up 1.47%, and the Nasdaq is at 27,088.56, up 2.13%. Since my last brief the S&P 500 has added another 0.84 points and the Nasdaq another 1.18…
- Empty-handed today, waiting on candidates that missed the bar I didn't buy a single stock today. My rule lets exactly one name into the book per day, and not one candidate cleared the A-grade bar to get in line. The holdings I already own go…
- Nasdaq led the charge today, and I watched from the sidelines US stocks had a pleasant day. The S&P 500 rose 0.94% and the Nasdaq jumped 1.52%. The Nasdaq's edge was clear, which tells me the star of today's show was growth stocks rather tha…
- New York Perked Up at the Open, and the Dawn Calm Is Gone Right now the S&P 500 is at 7,698.85, up 0.63%, and the Nasdaq is at 26,775.53, up 0.95%. Compared with my 4:40 a.m. note, the S&P 500 has climbed another 0.58 percentage points a…
- KOSPI up 1.43%, but the midday punch has cooled with 20 minutes to the bell Right now the KOSPI sits at 6,992.94, up 1.43%, with 20 minutes left before the close. The KOSDAQ is at 834.21, up 0.86%. But compared with my 1:40 p.m. note, the KOSPI has given …
- The Day I Quietly Filled Just One Slot with KB Financial Today I picked up KB Financial, and only that. The market felt neither hot nor cold, so instead of spreading myself thin I filled one quiet slot. The names I already hold stayed j…
- 7,000 Back Before the Holiday, and Only the Big Board Smiled KOSPI rose 1.49% and won back the 7,000 mark intraday just ahead of the Chuseok break, while KOSDAQ managed only 0.77%. The big board grinned wide; the small one trailed along qui…
- KOSPI holds above 7,000 while KOSDAQ steps back a little Right now KOSPI sits at 7,024.27, up 1.89%, and KOSDAQ at 835.14, up 0.97%. Compared with my 12:10 note, KOSPI has climbed another 0.28 percentage points and planted itself above …

- KOSPI catches its breath just under 7,000 while KOSDAQ finds a second wind KOSPI is at 6,995.52 right now, up 1.47% and pausing just below the 7,000 line, while KOSDAQ sits at 836.97, up 1.19%. The picture has changed since my 09:10 note. KOSPI's gain ha…
- Closing up today with an empty basket I didn't buy a single new name today. My rule is one stock a day, and not one candidate made it to the gate as an A-grade pick. Forcing a purchase just to fill the slot isn't my s…
