SK hynix ADRs extend gains after $26.5 billion Nasdaq debut as Seoul shares slide 12.89%
AI Market Summary
SK hynix's Nasdaq ADR debut drew strong institutional demand, with U.S.-listed shares rallying after a $26.5B listing and trading at a modest premium to Seoul shares. The sharp drop in Korea signals profit-taking and valuation uncertainty following new issuance, highlighting near-term cross-market dislocation. Speculation around a Samsung U.S. listing added attention, but Reuters-reported denial tempered spillover expectations across Korean tech ADRs.
