Samsung Electronics Share Class: Current Status & Trade Approach

Event-Driven

<ul>
<li>SamE Common/1P price ratio gap is again above +100% of σ on a 20D MA in favor of Common. Deepening concerns about memory chip price hammered both SamE and Hynix yesterday. But SamE 1P couldn't capitalize. 1P fell even further, almost reaching 120D high in Common/1P price ratio in favor of Common.</li>
<li>We've recently heard rebounding demand for memory chips. This has pushed up both SamE and Hynix lately. Improving fundamentals coupled with the March AGM cycle factor have consistently supported SamE Common/1P price ratio above +0.5σ on a 20D MA since late Jan. This optimism is now facing a serious challenge probably for the first time since late last year.</li>
<li>Opinions are still heavily divided on memory chip business outlook. The concerns reignited by the falling price news would be here with us in the coming few weeks at least. This'd outweigh even the March AGM factor. 1P starts placing itself ahead of Common. I'd go long 1P and short Common now. I'd hold onto the position until -150~200% of σ. This is a 5~6% yield.</li>
