Five new positions worth millions each were all opened to buy the dip in SK Hynix, and are now all in the red.

1 hours ago

According to Hyperinsight monitoring, SK Hynix’s stock continued to decline after the company released its earnings report this morning. As of press time, SKHX, Hyperliquid’s Korean stock mapping contract for SK Hynix, traded at $969.93, down roughly 11.0% in 24 hours. Less than an hour after the sharp drop, the platform recorded five positions (all long orders) worth over $1 million each—new, reopened or reversed—totaling 8,419.75 SKHX contracts, with a position value of around $8.167 million and a weighted average entry price of $981.15. SKHX has now fallen below the overall cost line of these whales, leaving all five long positions in unrealized losses totaling approximately $95,000. The latest liquidation price stands at $930.62, about 4.1% below the current level. Funding rates show bottom-fishing capital is rushing in: SKHX’s hourly funding rate hit -0.0855% at 7 AM this morning, turned positive immediately after the earnings release, and the current real-time estimate has risen to 0.0373%. Calculated at the current rate, a $1 million long position needs to pay roughly $373 per hour to short sellers. The rapid flip of funding rates to positive signals that long trades after the sharp drop have become significantly crowded, yet prices have yet to stabilize.

South Korea's stock market has triggered circuit breakers for two consecutive days, bringing the total number of such halts to nine so far this year.

The Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) saw its intraday decline exceed 8% at one point today, triggering the market’s circuit breaker mechanism, falling below the 5,600-point threshold to hit a recent low. This marks the ninth time South Korea’s stock market has triggered the circuit breaker this year, and the second consecutive trading day it has done so. Earlier market views had argued that South Korea’s circuit breaker mechanism was no longer effective, failing to effectively halt sell-offs. The core drivers behind this slump are the revaluation of AI semiconductor stocks coupled with structural flaws in South Korea’s market. Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix together account for over 40% of KOSPI’s total market capitalization, meaning fluctuations in these two stocks alone can sway the broader market’s direction.

SK Hynix’s market value erased roughly one-fifth over two days, while South Korean stocks fell 18%.

South Korea’s stock market has fallen sharply for the second consecutive day. Chipmaker SK Hynix’s second-quarter earnings missed estimates, extending the sector’s slump, while retail investors have been cutting positions en masse. After closing down 10% on Tuesday, South Korea’s KOSPI index plunged another 8% on Wednesday. So far in July, the KOSPI has dropped over 30%, on track to record its worst monthly decline in history. The index rallied sharply earlier this year, with gains almost entirely driven by Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. After closing down 14% on Tuesday, SK Hynix’s shares plummeted 12% on Wednesday, wiping out roughly one-fifth of its market value in two days. Investors are now awaiting earnings reports from Samsung Electronics and other major U.S. tech companies due on Thursday. (Jin10)
